joining me is governor gretchen whitmer of michigan. is a cochair of president biden's campaign. how concerned is the biden white house that by some miracle they are facing nikki haley rather than donald trump? >> well, i think the results last night out of iowa tell us what we've all kind of suspected, that donald trump still has a grip on the republican party. the maga extremists are the standard bearers for today's republican party. it's not reflective of who we are as a nation. it's not reflective of where we need to be headed as a country as we think about our standing globally. president biden gave a speech in valley forge and charleston talking about the real threat to american democracy and fundamental freedoms which have been under attack, especially these last few years as you think about reproductive rights. it's always going to be a competitive race, especially in a state like mine. but at the end of the day, voters are smart. they're going to vote for the person who's waking up in the morning and thinking about them and wor

michigan's governor, gretchen whitmer, did a really interesting interview with cbs, "face the nation," margaret brennan, and she said it would be good if the president himself focused more on the abortion issue. listen to this exchange. >> joe biden doesn't talk about abortion much. in fact, he has said that he's not big on it, because of his faith. does he need to talk about it more? >> i think it would be good if he did. >> you think he needs to be the messenger on that more? >> i don't think it would hurt. i think that people want to know that this is a president that is fighting and i think he has said that. to use maybe more, you know, blunt language, maybe that would be helpful. >> do you agree, senator? >> well, i do agree that abortion is an issue that a vast majority of americans are worried about, and we should be much more clear about what the choices are in this election in november, and that is women's access to basically reproductive health care and to control their own bodies. >> should the president himself, as the messenger, be more clear and more forceful on sending

selection process and he writes about the candidates that joe biden was picking from, governor whitmert of course joe biden went on the campaign trail and backed himself into a corner when he set very specific criteria for his vice president. at the time he was trailing in iowa, he lost new hampshire, he was losing to all these other candidates, he needed south carolina to win, representative jim clyburn, big south carolina player down there, and in the democratic party said if you do not pick a black woman we will not help you win south carolina, so kamala harris was one of the choices. and she called him a racist on the debate stage and that joe biden and jill biden wanted susan rice, who he had a good relationship with during the obama years, and so it certainly looks at the dynamic now in the campaign trail, kamala harris has had a hard time keeping track of -- keeping staff, been through a number of speech writers, and people running her office and very unhappy with the portfolio she's been given by the president, illegal immigration being one of them. so they are sticking to it t

this is something gretchen whitmer has also talked about being concerned about, and i wonder if you are, as well. >> my baseline always comes back to humanity and protection of human life. you know, what we saw on october 7th was unconscionable. and we know that hamas is not and will never be a legitimate partner inside the work pch we have to be able to push for a peaceful and a stable israeli state. we also need to make sure that we have a peaceful and stable palestinian state, as well. anybody who is not pushing for that is not going to be a partner inside this work. and i think that that's something that the president has been talking about and pushing for. the idea that we need to be able to have a pause in fighting to allow humanitarian aid in. that we need to be able to ensure that we get the hostages out now. these need to be priorities. we have to preserve human life. and the president is acting as the commander in chief in making sure that we can get that conclusion. and really make sure that we have peaceful states, both the palestinian and the israeli states, side by side, a
