At this point, the calls are coming loud and fast, even from Democrats for Joe Biden to step aside. But Biden is saying he's not going to quit. He's still living in delusion.

He allegedly let people know he was staying in on a campaign call.
"Let me say this as clearly as I possibly can as simply and straightforward as I can: I am running…no one’s pushing me out. I’m not leaving. I’m in this race to the end and we’re going to win.”
On Wednesday afternoon, he met with Democratic governors to try to reassure them as to his candidacy. Here's the list of the governors that he met with.
Wisconsin Dem Gov Tony Evers is the only Democratic governor to not meet with President Biden tonight. His office has not said why.

The governors who spoke to the press after the meeting were Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore (the guy whose biceps Biden admires), and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul. The short form is that the governors said that Biden had always had their backs, so they were going to have his back. Then they tried to pretend like there wasn't a problem and convince us that all was just hunky dory.
I don't think they're going to convince anyone with this flailing effort.
🚨 BREAKING: Democrat Governors just took questions LIVE after seeing Biden face-to-face for the first time since the debate.
BUT Where was Newsom? Whitmer? Pritzker?
They didn't take to the mics and face the music. I asked @SpeakerMcCarthy ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/H2xC1YjAhu

They claimed it was an "honest" conversation. When you love someone you tell them the truth, Moore said.
Hochul sounded a bit like it was a hostage video, "We're in it to win it."
"Biden is our nominee," Moore said. Walz claimed that he was "fit for office."
The flailing was a bit sad. Do they really think this is going to convince people that things are just fine? They don't even have Biden come out with them. What does that say?
Moore said the choice in November was between someone who had delivered and someone who was downright dangerous. Moore got it right, but a little twisted. It's Biden who's the one who's downright dangerous.
Walz said Biden had "delivered" - that alone should tell you how delusional they are, since all Biden has "delivered" on is higher inflation for everyone and more chaos all around the world that has harmed the United States. But they think that they can buffalo us all here with this dog and pony show when all they did was demonstrate how desperate they are over Joe Biden's problems.
On top of that, notice who else was missing from the remarks here. Where are the two people at the meeting whose names have frequently come up in discussions about replacing Biden? Where are California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer? They are oddly missing from these remarks. While they didn't speak after the meeting, Whitmer and Newsom posted tweets on Wednesday saying they were supporting Biden.

Did they not endorse what was said or not want to go on the record like the cowards they are? The people missing said more by their absence than the people who spoke.
