Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer suggested that President Biden should talk about abortion more so people know he is a president who is “fighting” for the right to an abortion.

Asked by CBS News “Face the Nation” anchor Margaret Brennan if Biden, who is of Catholic faith, needs to talk about abortion more, Whitmer said, “I think it would be good if he did.”

“I know that one tenet of his belief system is that women and only women at — with their families and — and health care professionals are the ones who know what decision is right for them,” said Whitmer, co-chair for Biden’s reelection campaign. “And that he is fighting and going to continue to fight to make sure that that is squarely the ability … [of] an American woman to make that decision.”

Brennan then asked if Biden needs to be the messenger on that more, to which Whitmer said, “I don’t think it would hurt.”

    You mean that thing that happened because the white left didn’t vote and let Republican majorities in both houses happen?

    The white left and refusing to accept that the world won’t just do revolution without their doing even the sliverest minimum to participate in the direction of politics beyond bitching, name a more iconic duo!

      Sorry, this has been going on for over four decades. You don’t get to just blanket, blame white left. It’s the entire Democratic party, from the states to the FED.
