Dem Governors Gripe About Biden During Private Call
In a private call Monday, Democratic governors got very candid about their concerns with President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance, and their worries about how to address it without embarrassing him or making him more adamant that he should run, according to CNN.
The governors were reportedly startled to hear that no one on the call had heard any updates or reassurance directly from the president after the debate and over the course of the campaign year. The top Dems were mostly in agreement that they needed face time with Biden himself, instead of with Vice President Kamala Harris or key advisers, to quiet the five-alarm fire.
The call came shortly after key Democratic surrogates flocked to the Sunday TV circuits and local media to insist that Biden who can beat Trump after doing so once before.
