and Trump—who he described as"a symptom, not the cause" of radical right-wing politics—during last year's midterm elections. Jarrett told interviewer Stephen Sackur"my expectation is that he would do the same in the general election."
"I think all of us good Democrats need to get behind whoever is the nominee and ensure that that person wins the election," she said."I have counseled several of the candidates to not beat up so much on their opponents, that whoever emerges as the nominee goes into the general election in a weakened state."
When Sackur asked Jarrett for her personal endorsement, the former adviser said she was"not going to put my thumb on the scale. Because at this time when Barack Obama was running in 2007, he was down by 30 points and Hilary Clinton was the inevitable candidate. So I'm not going to put my thumb on the scale… We haven't even had our first debates.
