JOE BIDEN SAYS WHEN HE CONSIDERED ENTERING 2020 DEMOCRATIC RACE, HE ‘NEVER ANTICIPATED THERE’D BE 300 PEOPLE RUNNING’

snip During a campaign fundraising event in Los Angeles on Thursday, Biden said “there's a lot of people who are qualified and decent and running,” referring to the 22 Democrats who have either already entered the 2020 presidential race or formed a presidential exploratory committee.

“And I think it's one heck of a field, although I never anticipated there'd be 300 people running,” the former six-term senator added.

Biden then pointed out that although “all that polling stuff looks good" for him at this point, he also acknowledged that the race “is a marathon and we have a long way to go.”

Despite his quip about the high quantity of candidates running, Biden asserted that Americans will “never hear me speak ill of another Democratic candidate.”
