It's Not The Same No Matter What The Media Says

Joe Biden is running for president and Barack Obama has NOT endorsed his candidacy even though Old Joe was Obama's VP for eight years.  It's a major embarrassment for Biden, and he has tried to downplay it by claiming he asked Obama NOT to endorse him.  What a joke!  No one would ever believe Biden's claim.  The last politician that asked an important national figure NOT to endorse him was, well, there's never been such a politician.

Because this is such a major embarrassment for Biden, the mainstream media is busy trying to protect him.  As a result, they asked President Trump if he would "automatically endorse" vice president Mike Pence should he run for president in 2020.  Not surprisingly, Trump said that was too far off into the future to answer but then gave a long bit of praise to Pence.  Next the media started asking Pence if Trump's answer bothered him.  Again, not surprisingly, Pence said that he had the highest respect for the President and that he was happy to be running with him again in 2020.

We're now going to hear that Biden isn't endorsed by Obama, but that it's no big deal because Trump won't endorse Pence for 2024.  It's not the same thing, though.  In fact, it's a silly argument.  Biden is actually running for president NOW.  Pence isn't.  Biden is actually looking for endorsements for president NOW.  Pence isn't.  Obama is someone who should be making an endorsement NOW.  Trump isn't.
