Following a meeting with President Joe Biden’s top campaign aides, Senate Democrats showed no signs of trying to convince the president to end his reelection bid — but they said he must show more vigor to prevent a full rebellion.
As they streamed in for the week’s final vote Thursday afternoon, some Democratic senators offered the embattled president free advice while stopping short of calling for a new presidential nominee.
“Some of my concerns have been allayed, some have been deepened. Joe Biden has to go to the American people, not just in one meeting, not just in one press conference” and demonstrate he can beat Donald Trump and serve another four-year term, said Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn. “I need to see more data and analytics that show a path to victory.”
