Biden’s closest advisors and Dem political operatives are conceding that Biden will lose in November, but that has not stopped extreme House Democrats from embracing their President:

CHASER:
- Hakeem Jeffries via Punchbowl News: “We pressed Jeffries on Biden — if his poll numbers aren’t concerning, do you worry about his age? But Jeffries didn’t budge, insisting the president is the best person to lead their party to victory next year. Jeffries sees the presidential race as a clear boon for House Democratic candidates, predicting it will again juice up turnout and motivate voters.”
- DCCC chair Suzan DelBene: Um, he’ll be on the campaign trail with some [vulnerable House Democrats].
- Mary Peltola: “I think that Joe Biden’s mental acuity is very, very on. He’s one of the smartest, sharpest people I’ve met in D.C.”
- Vicente Gonzalez: “[Biden] He’s healthy, he’s sharp, he’s a full package.”
- Steven Horsford: “The president is very well suited to be our commander-in-chief.”
- Susan Wild: “He’s very sharp“
NRCC National Press Secretary Will Reinert said: “Extreme House Democrats own just as much blame for the dire state of the country as Joe Biden; no wonder they continue to bury their heads in the sand and ignore their grim political reality.”
