CNN: Buttigieg Will Likely Endorse Biden

He spoke to VP Biden before dropping out. It’d be shocking if he didn’t endorse.

In fact ASAP, if he is serious about trying to stop Sanders.

I am guessing he is negotiating for something.

The Buttigieg irony: He’s a millennial whose message appealed to older voters but not his rising generation

Link to tweet

Doesn't seem like a Buttigieg endorsement would change the primary dynamics.

Pete's supporters look to split fairly evenly between Biden, Warren, Bloomberg and Sanders.

This is how it works. Every candidate will negotiate before dropping out. This has been going on for centuries.
