Former Secretary of State John Kerry reacted strongly to a report that he was considering a late entry into the 2020 Democratic field, saying he was not going to run for president.
An NBC employee claimed that Kerry was speaking on the phone at a hotel in Des Moines, Iowa, about the possibility of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), 78, winning the Democratic primary. Kerry allegedly told the person he was speaking to that to run for office he'd have to leave the board of Bank America and not make paid speeches.
