WASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Biden has formally clinched the Democratic presidential nomination, setting him up for a bruising challenge to President Donald Trump that will play out against the unprecedented backdrop of a pandemic, economic collapse and civil unrest.
I am going to spend every day between now and November 3rd
fighting to earn the votes of Americans.
Good.
A landslide, and a Democratic Senate, would be nice.
I wouldn’t hold your breath. Biden already has California. He needs the southern black vote. He can make Harris AG and she will go after the Dump Crime Family with a beautiful vengeance.
“He finished an embarrassing fourth place in the overwhelmingly white Iowa caucuses that kicked off the nomination process in February.”
Typical AP.
They misplaced the adjective, and modified the wrong noun in that sentence.
This is obviously an important milestone, but I’m not sure how “formal” Biden’s victory is yet. He’ll formally be the nominee when he is nominated at convention.
This milestone makes it exceedingly likely he’ll be the nominee, but he’s also been exceedingly likely to be the nominee ever since Bernie dropped out (and perhaps a bit before then too).
I don’t know… this story just seems a bit forced to me.
