In midst of a campaign interrupted by the coronavirus pandemic, Jill Biden's presence is a constant as her husband contemplates his VP pick.

And Jill Biden raised eyebrows this spring as she recalled that moment.

"Joe has an incredible capacity to forgive, and he's incapable of holding a grudge. But that means I end up being the holder of the grudges," she wrote."I remember every slight committed against the people I love. I can forgive, sure — but I don't believe in rewarding bad behavior." Those familiar with the conversations say the stab at Biden a year ago, which was once seen as a negative, could now be a plus, as one of the chief roles of a running mate is to be an attack dog — both against President Donald Trump and in a vice presidential debate against Mike Pence.

"You said, 'I love you, and I loved Beau.' I won't forget that," Biden said, recalling a brief pre-campaign encounter between the two.Jill Biden will also hold a separate event Friday with another Democrat being vetted by the campaign: Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire. Ahead of the March Florida primary, she campaigned in person with Rep. Val Demings, D-Fla., joining her for a church service in her hometown, Orlando.

She often acknowledges that viewers tuning in to her events may not know much about her, taking the first couple of minutes to introduce herself by talking about how she came to meet her husband — and the equal importance he placed on her desire to fulfill her career as a teacher.
