Biden's support on Capitol Hill grimly uncertain. A seventh Democrat says he should drop out
The mood on Capitol Hill has turned grim as Democrats wrestled over President Joe Biden’s reelection. A seventh House Democrat has said publicly that Biden should drop out. It was an extraordinary question before Democrats on Capitol Hill as they met privately Tuesday behind closed doors. Tensions are running high over whether he should remain as the party’s nominee amid mounting concerns over his ability to lead the part to election victory. In the Senate, where Biden spent a career, senators were largely silent. Biden emphatically refuses to step aside and implored his party in a sharply worded letter to refocus instead on the threat posed by Republican Donald Trump.
