Obama Endorses Hillary Clinton for President: “I’m with her”
President Barack Obama has given Hillary Clinton the thumbs up and endorsed her for president on Thursday, saying, “I’m with her” and that Clinton has “the courage, the compassion, and the heart to get the job done.”
FOX’s Jon Decker reports:
A little over an hour after meeting with Bernie Sanders, at Sanders request in the oval office, the President made his endorsement of Hillary Clinton official:
(President Obama) “Today, I just want to add mine. I want to congratulate Hillary Clinton on making history as the presumptive Democratic nominee for President of the United States. Look, I know how hard this job can be. That’s why I know Hillary will be so good at it. In fact, I don’t think there’s ever been someone so qualified to hold this office.”
The President is expected to hit the campaign trail with Clinton next week in Wisconsin.
Bernie Sanders, meanwhile, is vowing to stay in the race through the Democratic National Convention and compete against Clinton in the DC Primary next Tuesday.
Obama just endorsed Crooked Hillary. He wants four more years of Obama—but nobody else does!
