“Donald Trump is a dire threat to everything we hold dear,” Mayor Brandon Johnson said on the X social media platform. “Joe Biden is the president and our Democratic nominee, and we all need to do everything we can to defeat Donald Trump this November.”
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Monday said she would not become a candidate if President Joe Biden opts out. But Pritzker, who has been on shortlists as a potential replacement, wouldn't make the same vow.
