Joe Biden: Bernie Sanders ‘Is Going to Endorse’ Hillary Soon

Joe Biden seems to have a habit of prematurely deflating the hopes and dreams of Bernie Sanders fans.

First he made an aside in a speech to swipe at socialism, then he said “I would like to see a woman elected,” then he said he’s confident Hillary Clinton would be the nominee.

And now, in an interview today for NPR’s Weekend Edition, Biden said he’s spoken to Sanders and revealed he’s going to endorse Clinton soon:

Some people have expressed frustrations that, despite the Democratic race being over, Sanders has refused to concede and is keeping his campaign going. Hell, he sent out a fundraising email today.
