‘The Squad’ Is Coming Around to Kamala Harris for President
Members of “The Squad” appear to be warming up to Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic presidential nominee, with several of the progressive lawmakers even issuing formal endorsements after President Joe Biden announced that he would not seek re-election—endorsing Harris himself on his way out the door.
Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) have all come out with statements endorsing Harris as “our next president” and the Democratic Party’s best chance at beating Donald Trump in November.
“The people’s vote was a vote not only for President Biden, but a vote for Vice President Kamala Harris and her ability to defeat MAGA extremism across the country,” said Bush, the first Squad member to publicly endorse Harris in a statement.
