Jacquelyn Called Biden Her ‘Favorite’ & Said: ‘You Are Awesome, Oh My God’

Thanks to Diane S. and David Domke for mentioning this video!

Jacquelyn, a New York Times elevator operator and security guard, endorsed Joe Biden while the former vice president was headed up to meet with the newspaper’s editorial board in a bid to secure the Times endorsement.

Biden did not win the endorsement, the Times has chosen to endorse both Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, 70, and Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar, 59, to take on President Donald Trump in the 2020 General Election. The Times said in the announcement that the newspaper had broken “with convention, the editorial board has chosen to endorse two separate Democratic candidates for president.”

Journalist Peter Hamby reports that the video of Biden and Jacquelyn “has more than 6x the views on Twitter than the NYT opinion videos for Warren and Klobuchar … combined.” While Politico’s Holly Otterbein opined, “Could the Biden campaign have asked for better optics than this: an ordinary worker gushing over him while the New York Times editorial board decides to not put him in their top four choices? ”
