I know this is Lawrence (don’t hate me😄) but ⁦@JoeBiden⁩ talks VERY HIGHLY about ⁦@PeteButtigieg⁩ & hints at possible cabinet positions for Pete if Joe wins the presidency! Very exciting thinking about the possibilities but I don’t know if Joe will pick him to be VP pic.twitter.com/nMI06JPTLG

TWEETS

On Biden comparing Buttigieg to Beau, @CapehartJ: "There's a generational baton that was passed in that moment-The alliance you see there is not a marriage of convenience. I think it's one that's natural & the affection & respect b/w the two of them I think is also genuine."

— Andrea Mitchell (@mitchellreports) March 3, 2020

.@JoeBiden: "I can't tell you how much it means to me that he would step up and endorse me...I promise you, you're going to end up, over your lifetimes, seeing a hell of a lot more Pete than me."

— Andrew Bates (@AndrewBatesNC) March 3, 2020

The only way we beat Trump is through a politics that reflects the decency of the American people. It’s what we sought to practice in my campaign—and it’s what @JoeBiden has practiced his whole life.

I'm proud to stand with the VP and help make him our next Commander-in-Chief. pic.twitter.com/Y9SqDLZS0g

“This is a man who is not only brilliant but is decent,” says @JoeBiden of @PeteButtigieg, returning the compliment. He called this moment “bittersweet” for Buttigieg supporters. pic.twitter.com/v0ibm91W9f

"@PeteButtigieg knows this country needs to be healed...Pete gets it...it's all about family and community...I look at Pete in the debates and think, 'that's a Beau.' He has such character...you're going to see a Hell of a lot more of Pete." - @JoeBiden

— Matt Corridoni (@mattcorridoni) March 3, 2020

Unbelievably powerful & humble remarks by @JoeBiden about @PeteButtigieg: “He’s a Beau,” a reference to his lost son. Talks about Pete’s intellectual capacity, his dedication to public service. The highest compliment the VP could pay, the greatest testament to Pete’s leadership.

— Mike Signer (@MikeSigner) March 3, 2020

Big compliment from Biden to Buttigieg:

"He reminds me of my son Beau… to me it is the highest complaint you can give any man or woman.”

Biden's son Beau passed away in 2015. https://t.co/NLwgJR7gts

@JoeBiden’s warm words about @PeteButtigieg mean a lot to me as someone who sees how special Buttigieg is, and they signal that Biden intends to run this race as the captain of a big team. He’s reaching out and being inclusive, which is what Buttigieg’s campaign was all about.

We are building a movement based on a new kind of politics—one defined not by who we reject but who we bring along, and one shaped not by looking to yesterday but to our common future. This is our story, our shared vision for the country we love. pic.twitter.com/oNG4LcL6qJ
