00:00Meeting with the governors, so he, only three of the governors that were present at the
00:07White House came out to speak and to say that they had the president's back.
00:12Was the president disappointed that more governors did not speak out in person with the reporters
00:17that were there?
00:18Look, they showed up, more than 20 governors showed up.
00:23Three of them did come out and give a full-throated support of the president, want to be really
00:27mindful because it was a political event, and the governors that had to leave actually
00:32put out statements.
00:33I think Governor Newsom put out a statement, I believe Governor Whitmer, you got to go
00:37back and check me on that, put out statements saying that they needed to head back, right,
00:41they had to leave.
00:42And so I wouldn't look at it in a, like in a tunnel view.
00:46I think it's important that they showed up.
00:49There was an honest conversation that was had.
00:51They showed their full support and some of them who are not, who are not at the sticks
00:56doing a back-and-forth with all of you, taking questions, are out there, out there for the
01:03president and speaking on his behalf.
01:05Got to be really careful, obviously this is a political event.
