Joe Biden on Monday won the endorsement for US president of Nancy Pelosi, who hailed him as a “voice of reason” capable of leading America out of the coronavirus crisis. Pelosi was the last leading Democrat to endorse formally Biden’s run for the White House against Republican Donald Trump in November. “Today I am proud to endorse Joe Biden for president of the United States because he will be an extraordinary president,” the speaker of the House of Representatives said in the pre-recorded message. Biden, who served as vice president under former president Barack Obama, had already emerged as the Democrats’ presumptive nominee after decisive primary victories in a string of primaries before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down much of the country.
