In reply to the discussion: Cynthia Nixon attacks Joe Biden for calling Mike Pence a "decent man" [View all]Miles Archer
(18,837 posts)82. Pence is not a player
God may have told Pence that it was his destiny to be president, but we'll see.
Biden calling Pence "a decent guy" diffuses any kind of adversarial dynamic between the two.
I don't see the remark as an endorsement of Pence's beliefs or behavior.
I see it as Joe taking Pence out of the equation.
But that's just me. And as I have said, I will endorse the final Democratic candidate, but today, Joe is my first choice.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Some folks seem more interested in attacking Democrats than Republicans.

Cynthia Nixon was endorsed in that race by the so-called "Justice Democrats."
