President Donald Trump told Republican governors that implementing his agenda was key to their own political futures, arguing that embracing it could mitigate or even prevent losses in the midterm elections.

“We’re going to fight very hard, because the better I do, the better you do,” Trump said. “It makes your races a lot easier if we do well, and we’re going to keep doing well.”
