Biden ‘in It to Win It,’ Democratic Governors Say

After a meeting with President Biden, some of the country’s Democratic governors said they had pledged their support, despite what one governor called his “bad performance” during the first presidential debate.

President Joe Biden is in it to win it. And all of us said we pledged our support to him because the stakes could not be higher. We, like many americans, are — we’re worried. We’re worried because the threat of a Trump presidency is not theoretical for governors. We’ve served when Donald Trump was president and the threats to our nation were real. The Trump presidency was chaos, destruction. A Biden presidency was dealing with Covid, using the science, investing in infrastructure, and working to the middle class. We came in and we were honest about the feedback that we were getting. We were honest about the concerns that we were hearing from people. And we were also honest about the fact that as the president continued to tell us and show us that he was all in, that we said that we would stand with him because, as Governor Walz said, the president has always had our backs. We’re going to have his back as well. Do you think he’s fit for office. Yes, fit for office. The president has three and a half — three and a half years of delivering for us, going through what we’ve all been through. None of us are denying: Thursday night was a bad performance. It was a bad — it was a bad hit, if you will, on that. But it doesn’t impact what I believe he’s delivering.
