<p>Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) appeared desperate to evade any and all questions about his support for former President Joe Biden — support that continued even after it became painfully obvious that Biden was declining rapidly.</p>
<p>Newsom repeatedly dodged questions on that topic during a Sunday morning appearance on &#8220;Meet the Press,&#8221; attempting to change the subject every time host Kristen Welker raised another question about the former president.</p>
<p><strong>WATCH:</strong></p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Gavin Newsom slithers around in an attempt to explain why he’s defended Joe Biden’s capacity to serve a second term:</p>
<p>Welker: You stood by him till the end. Did you ever have concerns about his capacity to serve another four years?</p>
<p>Newsom: “I never had that.&#8221;</p>
<p>Welker: Did you… <a href="https://t.co/VwpP06B5RP">pic.twitter.com/VwpP06B5RP</a></p>

<p>&#8220;You stood by him till the end, after that disastrous debate performance, even when top Democrats were calling for him to step down,&#8221; Welker began. &#8220;Did you ever have concerns, Governor, about his capacity to serve another four years?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I go home with the one that —&#8221; Newsom attempted to use the expression that he&#8217;d &#8220;dance with the one who brought him,&#8221; and then added, &#8220;I never had that — I just talked to the president a few hours ago. I&#8217;ve been privileged to have a relationship with the president.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Governor, Did you legitimately believe that he was capable of serving as president until January of 2029?&#8221; Welker tried again.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yeah, I think my focus was frankly situational,&#8221; Newsom replied, not really answering the question. &#8220;I was making sure Donald Trump didn&#8217;t get back into office to experience everything that we&#8217;re experiencing today, and there was no interaction that I had that suggested otherwise.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;What do you say to Americans who feel misled by you and other top Democrats?&#8221; Welker asked.</p>
<p>&#8220;Misled in what respect? He decided to step down —&#8221; Newsom protested.</p>
<p>&#8220;About the mental acuity of President Biden, they wish you had sounded the alarm sooner to give way for a convention,&#8221; Welker continued.</p>
<p>&#8220;I never experienced — I&#8217;m not going to substitute myself for someone else,&#8221; Newsom said. &#8220;Or for popular opinion. I&#8217;m going to express my relationship to my truth with the former President of the United States, including at the end of his term, quite literally in December, which was a master class in foreign policy and domestic policy, which I will never forget as we walk through not just the election but when we&#8217;re walking through the world we&#8217;re living in. There was nothing to suggest what you just said or, or others have suggested in terms of my interaction. That&#8217;s all I can be accountable for.&#8221;</p>
