Saying "we need you in the White House," Sen. Bernie Sanders endorsed Joe Biden for president on Monday, less than a week after suspending his own campaign for the Democratic Party nomination.
The Vermont senator made the announcement during a livestreamed virtual event with Biden, the former vice president who is now his party's presumptive presidential nominee.
"We are in a terrible moment, an unprecedented moment and I know we share the understand that we have to go forward, right now and out of this, in an unprecedented way to address the terrible pain that so many of our fellow Americans are feeling," Sanders said.
"So today I am asking all Americans, I’m asking every Democrat and I’m asking every independent, I’m asking a lot of Republicans, to come together in this campaign to support your candidacy, which I endorse, to make certain that we defeat somebody who I believe, and I’m speaking just for myself now, is the most dangerous president in the modern history of this country," he said.
The announcement settles speculation on whether and when Sanders would formally back his former primary rival. He notably did not endorse when he suspended his campaign last week, stoking speculation about a lingering ideological divide -- one which still may persist between Sanders supporters and the Biden camp.

No surprise that the Clintons have not endorsed Biden. Hillary is probably still hoping to be the nominee. At any rate, not endorsing gives her leverage—why endorse without a quid pro quo?
So the useful idiots just found out they were useful idiots. Next up, voting for a child molestor.
Sellout redux. There’s your brave leader Bernie bro’s.
