John Kerry endorses Joe Biden, says he’s the one ‘who can beat Trump’

Former Secretary of State John Kerry endorsed Joe Biden’s presidential bid Thursday, saying even President Trump understands that the former vice president can beat him in 2020.

“I believe Joe Biden is the President our country desperately needs right now, not because I’ve known Joe so long, but because I know Joe so well. I’ve never before seen the world more in need of someone who on day one can begin the incredibly hard work of putting back together the world Donald Trump has smashed apart,” the 2004 Democratic presidential candidate said in a press release.
