On the topic of endorsements, today Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez officially endorses Bernie Sanders for president alongside Ilhan Omar who had endorsed him earlier this week. Sanders has now received half of the squads endorsements, Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib have yet to give their endorsements. I suspect Pressley will most likely endorse Warren as she hails from the same state but both endorsements are still up in the air.
Aoc's statement:
Today I am endorsing Senator @BernieSanders for president.
In the end, we must come together to defeat Donald Trump. We should do so knowing he is a symptom of a larger problem - and our greatest hope is a multiracial, working class movement in the United States of America. pic.twitter.com/9fiTS7FTX9
