Leslie Marshall: Hillary Clinton endorsement of Biden is bad news for Trump – Democrats uniting to defeat him
Fox News ^ | April 29, 2020 | Leslie Marshall

Posted on 04/29/2020 2:25:27 AM PDT by Zakeet

Hillary Clinton’s endorsement Tuesday of former Vice President Joe Biden in the November presidential election is just the latest sign of Democratic unity that will be needed to send President Trump into political retirement.

Biden has also picked up the endorsements of many other prominent Democrats, including candidates who ran against him for the presidential nomination this year, former President Barack Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California, and even Rep Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez of New York – one of the most progressive members of Congress.

Democratic unity this year is quite a contrast with the disunity of 2016. Clinton struggled then to get endorsements, especially from Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont (who ran against her for the presidential nomination) and the more progressive wing of the party.

The endorsement of Biden by Clinton – a former first lady, senator and secretary of state – may not get Biden many additional votes, but it’s likely to help him raise the millions of dollars he needs to defeat Trump.

[Snip]

Democratic unity illustrated by the endorsements from Clinton and others that Biden has picked up is a positive sign for those of us who long for competent leadership in the White House. I don’t know if Joe Biden will be our next president, but if I were a Trump supporter I’d be very nervous about the prospect.

[Democrats uniting to defeat him]

Like they haven’t been trying for nearly 3.5 years now.......

Lies, Fake News, Lies, Lies, Lies and Damned Lies.

All part of the Democrat playbook.

Looks like Fox News is now all in for Biden now. No surprise.

Yes, this is “news” in the same category as “Flake won’t support Trump”. Dems have been united in demonic fury to defeat our Pres since he came down the escalator.

Democrats coalescing around Biden is scary. I thought there was a chance Clinton would endorse Trump. What a ridiculous article.

From wiki:

“Leslie Marshall is a United States journalist. She has been a liberal radio talk host since 1988”

United States journalist and liberal talk host shouldn’t be in the same sentence.

I would too, Leslie. He's not all there at least some of the time.

What - was she worried HRC would endorse Trump?

It sounds like she doesn’t know the D’s do this every time.

B.S.
D’rats have been UNITED for 4+ years to defeat this man. They’ve not yet succeeded on many key plays. Please, tell us something we don’t yet know.

So you think one of the most, if not THE most disliked politicians in America and a 2 time loser candidate with a history of scandals past and ongoing giving an endorsement to Biden is a big deal?

And btw since when have endorsements made a noticeable difference oin the outcome of a race?

You seem like one of those who never thought Trump had a chance in 2016, finding every negative attack on him to be the death knell to his campaign.

You are a pearl clutcher.

Relax, the campaign hasn’t even begun and our president has yet to mobilize for the fight. The Republicans have far, FAR outraised the Dems at the RNC, DNC levels with the Dems being saddled with debt vs the Rep having none.

The time to begin being concerned is when the real campaigninh begins after the Conventions.

The only thing newsworthy about this endorsement is Hitlery didn’t endorse herself.

Wait till the debates. The rats will be sorry they picked Biden. Are the media going to go after Trump for being too tough on a dementia patient?

The only way Hillary was ever NOT going to endorse him was if she was getting in the race herself. FAKE NEWS.

I doubt her endorsement will materially help a senile accused rapist.
