Rep. Brad Schneider endorses Joe Biden,,, Yea Joe....😎🎨

WASHINGTON — Joe Biden picked up the endorsement of Rep. Brad Schneider, D-Ill., on Wednesday, with the suburban Chicago lawmaker telling the Sun-Times that having the ex-vice president at the top of the ticket will help Democrats keep control of the House of Representatives.
Schneider becomes the highest-ranking current elected official in Illinois to endorse Biden; the state’s primary is March 17.
Biden “is the candidate that can unite us, who can bring the party together. He is the one who is most electable. There is a united purpose among all Democrats that we have to beat Donald Trump. And I think there is a strong sense of many that Joe Biden is the best one to do that,” Schneider said.
Schneider said Biden is in the best position to bring together “Democrats that span the entire spectrum of our party. … And I really do believe that Joe Biden is best positioned to bring voters out to unite the party and ensure that we hold the majority in the House; hopefully, are able to take the majority in the Senate and get to a place where we can govern and move this country forward.”
Schneider, from Deerfield, represents the 10th Congressional District, taking in suburbs stretching west from Lake Michigan in Cook and Lake counties. He is a co-chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s frontline program, designed to bolster Democrats in swing districts. The DCCC is the House political operation.
The Illinois frontliners are freshmen Reps. Lauren Underwood and Sean Casten; their victories in 2018 helped give the Democrats control of the House. Schneider said Biden at the top of the ticket would boost the re-election bid of Underwood and Casten.

He's not a nationally popular figure like AOC (or Joe Rogan for that matter). I doubt these kinds of endorsements move things much, particularly since everyone already expects that most party officials are going to endorse Biden.
