Biden Challenger ‘Unsuspends’ Presidential Campaign

-

On Wednesday, long-shot candidate Marianne Williamson announced she is jumping back into the presidential race to challenge .

Williamson made the announcement in a video statement on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. Williamson said she returned to the race because she feels President Biden is a vulnerable candidate to put up against former President .

“As of today, I am unsuspending my campaign for the presidency of the United States,” Williamson said. “I had suspended it because I was losing the horse race. But something so much more important than the horse race is at stake here, and we must respond.”

“Right now, we have a fascist standing at the door. Everybody's all upset about it. Well, we should be upset about it. But we're not going to defeat the fascist by–well, by what? What is President Biden offering?” she asked. “What is he saying beyond, ‘You know, the is doing really well.'?”

“We're still in this. Let's do this. This is serious,” she added. “We need to say to the American people, ‘we see your pain,' and we need to say to Donald Trump, ‘we see your B.S.'”

Williamson originally suspended her campaign on Feb. 7, dropping out of the race without making an endorsement.
