Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Clyburn poised to endorse Biden in big boost before S.C. primary
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/02/23/clyburn-to-endorse-biden-south-carolina-116986The House majority whip wields enormous sway in the state, especially among African Americans.
House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, who wields enormous influence in his home state of South Carolina, is planning to endorse Joe Biden on Wednesday, multiple sources with knowledge of the Democrats plans told POLITICO.
The planned endorsement is expected three days ahead of the state's Saturday primary, giving Biden an important boost in a state that will likely determine the fate of his candidacy. Clyburn, the highest ranking African American in Congress, has long been close with Biden and has been open about his affinity for the former vice president during the Democratic primary.
Biden won the majority support of Black voters in Nevada and still holds the lead in SC. The debate, Clyburn's endorsement, and the campaign this week will give Joe momentum this week.

OP
Why does he "hate" Bernie Sanders? Is he a part of the "Democratic Establishment"?

Biden might have done better in Nevada without all the trumps ads against him.
Biden's getting it from all sides and he's holding strong.
