Chicago Sun-Times
WASHINGTON Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden took a break from this No Malarkey bus tour across Iowa for a fundraising trip to Chicago on Monday.
The former vice president and his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, held separate events in Chicago on Monday, after Biden stumped in Iowa. On Tuesday, Biden resumes his tour of the state with the first-in-the-nation presidential vote.
In Illinois, the Biden delegate slates are being organized by Sheila Nix, a former chief of staff to Jill Biden when she was in the White House. Nix told the Chicago Sun-Times she expects Biden to run delegate slates in all 18 Illinois congressional districts.
On Monday, Biden fundraised at the downtown Union League Club at an event with about 70 people. According to the pool report, Biden slammed President Donald Trump at a Chicago fundraiser on Monday night, saying the president literally is corroding the soul of this country.
