WASHINGTON -- Billionaire businesswoman Penny Pritzker, a major Democratic fundraiser and former commerce secretary under President Barack Obama, has endorsed Joe Biden for president.
The former vice president’s campaign announced her endorsement on Wednesday. Pritzker’s support could give Biden a considerable fundraising boost.
Pritzker is an heir to the Hyatt Hotel fortune and played an instrumental role in Obama’s rise, helping him raise money for his successful Senate run as well as his 2008 presidential primary campaign against Hillary Clinton. She served as Obama’s commerce secretary from 2013 until he left office.
Her brother J.B. Pritzker is the governor of Illinois.
Penny Pritzker praised Biden’s years of Washington experience in a statement, which noted that she has known him for more than 20 years.
“I can think of no one better prepared for the job of President of the United States than Joe Biden,” she said. “He will be a commander-in-chief that will make all Americans proud, and he will rebuild our alliances to make our nation once again respected across the world as a beacon of hope, opportunity and freedom.”

Well, she had to do “something” to get a date with Hunter Biden.
Well now I know to stay away from any Hyatt properties.
Did she care to name one accomplishment in those 20 years?
Amazing. Billionaires are the enemy of the Democrats.
with news like this, we can all take the day off tomorrow!
An heir to a fortune. Well of course, she must be an expert at management, leadership and politics.
Yep, what happened to the 1%ers are evil?
$$$ <> Brains
With Joe, there will be no more wars. Only push up contests.
Frankly, no different than Betsy DeVos.
Prizker and Biden = The Deep State....

Maybe she helped facilitate some or all of Biden's and Zero's dirty corrupt business deals.
Seriously, how many people will now say “I’m in for Joe” because Penny says. Sheesh
“Her brother J.B. Pritzker is the governor of Illinois.”
How well I know.
Well this explains the Pritzker Architecture Prize selections over the years. ....mimics the Noble Peace Prize selections. ...man these rich left wing Marxist whack jobs have their nasty tentacles everywhere. Makes you think all those villains in the James Bond movies are based on real life scenarios .
Having money does not necessarily equate with brains.
It is so ironic that all these billionaires are supporting the democrats. Tom Steyers & Bloomberg ads always include how they are so successful and self-made billionaires, yet at the same time Obama, Warren, Sanders and AOC tell us that no one is self-made. “You didn’t build that”. Your wealth was made off the backs of the rest of us.
