North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper on Trump and the midterm elections — "The Takeout"
CBSN
President Biden's reelection prospects are better after the midterms, a Trump-led ticket wouldn't win North Carolina again in 2024 and Democrats defied expectations because the party's governors led the way, according to North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.
"I expect him to," Cooper said of a Biden bid for re-election, in an appearance on "The Takeout" podcast. "I had a conversation with him just a couple of days ago. I support him. He's been a fantastic president. I've told him that I will try to win North Carolina. If he makes the decision, I'm for him 100%."
Trump won North Carolina in 2016 and 2020, but Cooper, head of the Democratic Governors Association, doesn't see the former president winning his state again in 2024, should he be the GOP nominee.
