Cindy McCain, widow of John, details her husband’s friendship with Joe Biden for DNC
Baltimore Sun, Aug 18, 2020, Associated Press

WILMINGTON, DEL. — Cindy McCain is going to bat for Joe Biden, lending her voice to a video set to air during Tuesday night’s Democratic National Convention programming focused on Biden’s close friendship with her late husband, Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona.

She’s just the latest Republican to join in the convention, after a number of notable GOP former elected officials — including former Ohio Gov. John Kasich — endorsed the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee on Monday night. It’s a continuation of a major theme that Democrats have pushed through the first night of the convention — an effort to broaden the party’s appeal to occasional Republicans and disaffected Trump voters.

In an advance clip from the video shared with The Associated Press, Cindy McCain talks about how Biden, then a Delaware senator, met her husband when John McCain was assigned to be a military aide for him on a trip overseas. The two became friends, and the families would gather for picnics in the Bidens’ backyard.

“They would just sit and joke. It was like a comedy show, sometimes, to watch the two of them,” she says in the clip.

Cindy McCain is not expected to offer an explicit endorsement, but her involvement in the video is her biggest public show of support yet for Biden’s candidacy. McCain was the 2008 Republican presidential nominee against Democrat Barack Obama, who won the election with Biden as his vice presidential running mate.

Just how desperate are these Socialists?

Should we start a pool on which night Romney shows up?

I'm putting my vote on Wednesday night.

Here's the McCain clip:

Before tonight's festivities ... remember

"We Are Democrats"

Watch "We Are Democrats" before it's pulled down in 5 .. 4...3...

It’s strange that Cindy McCain thinks doing a video about how close her husband John McCain was to Joe Biden for the DNC will reflect badly on President Trump.— Emerald Robinson ✝️ (@EmeraldRobinson) August 18, 2020

NYT editorial board member says it was “blown away” by how radical Joe Biden’s platform is.

“Biden's platform is far more liberal than Barack Obama's was….We were blown away how much more similar it is to Bernie Sanders's platform.”

WATCH: Radical Democrat at #DemConvention asks “why can’t folks imagine a world without the cops?"

"We're talking about abolishing the police, we're talking about abolishing ICE, and we're talking about abolishing prisons."

This is Joe Biden’s Democrat Party.

Breaking on @MSNBC: Colin Powell will be a featured speaker at the Democratic National Convention tonight.

Do we have any proof Powell actually voted for Dubya or his father? ... the last Republicans he "supported"?
