President Joe Biden has become more receptive in the last several days to hearing arguments about why he should drop his reelection bid, Democrats briefed on his conversations said Wednesday, after his party’s two top leaders in Congress privately told him they were deeply concerned about his prospects.
Biden has not given any indication that he is changing his mind about staying in the race, the Democrats said, but has been willing to listen to rundowns of new and worrying polling data and has asked questions about how Vice President Kamala Harris could win.
The accounts suggest that Biden, privately at least, is striking a more open-minded posture than he did last week when he lashed out at a number of House Democrats who pressed him to step aside.
Even more concerning to Democrats is data they have received in recent days that reveals the extent of the political damage that could come to the party’s incumbents from remaining supportive of Biden, with one poll suggesting that voters are deeply distrustful of elected officials who vouch for the president’s mental capacity and endorse him.
One Biden adviser, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive internal discussions, said that the decision came down to hard facts and that there were three that mattered: polling, cash and which states are in play. And, as this adviser put it, none of those are trending in the right direction for Biden.

What a strange turn of events. It seems like the biggest supporters of Biden are now MAGA Republicans.
100% surety that the Dems bounce Biden. They play hardball, they know he can’t win, they will not sit this one out.
Bull sugar! Biden is not stepping aside. Lady McBiden and the pervert druggie want the power. This paper is not reporting news, but wishes.
The only thing the Satanists have is infant sacrifice and super dumbed down slaves.
This article has five co-authors and no named sources—classic Slimes reporting.
Their theme this year will be elect the first female President ever, Kamala, and preserve abortion.
Lady McBiden and the pervert druggie want the power.

This is probably the reason why Biden in cracking under pressure. When Pelosi and Schumer and the democrat horde show up at his office, Jill can’t hover over him. She has to let the wolves feast. She has coached him not to cave in but they probably strong armed him in private
If I were Biden ..I’d be worried about being assassinated..not by a right winger but a leftard.
Historically that has been the case
Lincoln ..JFK..Reagan..
Nancy and Senator Schumer are going to be unrelenting, while Joe is in Washington, and far away from the Dr. Jill/Number One Son Glee Club.
Biden will not go willingly. It will take an enormous amount of pressure.
And by “Biden”, I of course mean Jill Biden.
Reagan was an attempted assassination. Someone will jump on me about that.
His get out of jail free and keep all the bribe money card is printed before our eyes.
I find it delightful that the only thing Biden has learned from Donald Trump is a total disregard for the MSM media. Ten years ago pressure would have caused Biden to resign a month ago. Now he ignores them.
Wasn’t the Demonicrat convention guaranteed a bunch of anarchist, destructive protesters, 1968-style?
Talk about a brand name killer.
Okay, if there isn’t a pool already going, I pick Biden drops out of the race for “health reasons” on July 22.
I want him to wait until late September... when it’s too late to forge phony ballots.
Sounds like some dollars are finally being discussed.
Any single other method allows Gruesome to call for delegates to vote their conscience. If Joe leaves their Convention as nominee, Melania can start calling the movers.
