Jill Biden says she’s ‘all in’ on husband’s reelection as he insists anew he won’t leave the race

Associated Press  

TAMPA, Fla. — Jill Biden on Monday declared herself “all in” on President Joe Biden’s bid to remain as the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, despite calls by some Democrats for him to drop out after his damaging debate performance against Donald Trump shook their confidence in him. “That’s the decision that he’s made, and just as he has always supported my career, I am all in too,” said Jill Biden, who teaches English and writing as a community college professor. “Donald Trump wakes up every morning thinking of one person and one person only: himself.” Danny Fuqua, president of the Democratic Veterans Caucus of Florida, said Biden’s ties to the military make him the clear choice in November. Jill Biden used her appearance to draw contrasts between her husband’s and Trump’s attitudes toward U.S. service members, veterans and their families.
