A second sitting Democrat has turned on President Joe Biden - saying he's actually 'OK' if Donald Trump wins in November.

Maine Democratic Rep. Jared Golden, 41, is now saying that he expects Trump to win after Biden's terrible debate performance.

'After the first presidential debate, lots of Democrats are panicking about whether President Joe Biden should step down as the party’s nominee,' he wrote for a Maine newspaper.

'Biden’s poor performance in the debate was not a surprise,' he continued.

'It also didn’t rattle me as it has others, because the outcome of this election has been clear to me for months: While I don’t plan to vote for him, Donald Trump is going to win. And I’m OK with that.'

Golden became the second current member of Congress to buck Biden this week.

Texas Democrat Rep. Lloyd Doggett, 77, first came forward on Tuesday, likening the hard decision he says Biden must make for the sake of the nation to the one made decades ago by another sitting Democratic president.

'I represent the heart of a congressional district once represented by Lyndon Johnson,' the Texan said in a statement. 'Under very different circumstances, he made the painful decision to withdraw.

'President Biden should do the same,' he continued. 'While much of his work has been transformational, he pledged to be transitional.'
