Being president and governor are very different

Gov. Kim Reynolds at a recent rally, not yet a president herself, presented her contrast with President Joe Biden. Let’s be realistic. Being governor of Iowa and president of the United States are two entirely different positions. Biden comes from a long line of political experience vs. the governor who worked for Terry Branstad and then became governor of Iowa.
Running a nation with world affairs and looking after 99 counties are a night and day contrast. It’s suggested the governor reassess her comparison motives. Maybe it’s too soon to be thinking about a run for vice-president of the United States.
