Reports Show Michelle Obama Setting Up to Join Biden Campaign After Endorsement

WHOA.

Michelle Obama has repeatedly said that she wasn’t interested in getting back into the White House anytime soon, but that’s not stopping her from getting back out on the campaign trail…at least according to new reports out of Washington DC.

The news comes as the Democratic Party struggles mightily to unite behind Biden, particularly after he was accused of sexual assault by a former staffer named Tara Reade.

Former Vice President Joe Biden’s team is speaking with former first lady Michelle Obamaabout winning her endorsement and having her play a role in his campaign, according to a report.

Former President Obama endorsed Biden last week soon after Sen. Bernie Sanders dropped out of the race and Biden emerged as the apparent Democratic nominee.

While the former president is still popular with his party, Michelle Obama’s star power among progressives may well eclipse her husband’s.

“We know what pretty much everyone in America does: Michelle Obama is probably the most beloved member of the Democratic Party and her support is a big deal,” a Biden aide told The Hill. “Any future announcement would reflect the incredible impact her voice has.”

Biden is the presumptive nominee for the Democrats, but that came at the cost of again irking the supporters of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who has a solid grasp on the younger ears in the party.
