CBS News Chief Election & Campaign Correspondent Robert Costa reports tonight that Team Biden is FURIOUS over the Democrat pressure campaign that continues to pick up speed, all while he’s trying to recover from COVID.
The source who relayed this to Costa said they feel disrespected and adds, “If they want him out, they’ll have to push” him out.
Here’s the full report:
Sources close to President Biden tell me tonight they’re *furious* that while the president is trying to recover from Covid in Rehoboth, a pressure campaign keeps picking up speed. Lots of anger toward some donors for talking of $ drying up if he doesn’t quit, toward what they see as muted support from Pres. Obama, and toward Dem leaders who one source says are “hiding” behind statements. If they want him out, they’ll have to push, source adds. Feels disrespected. Still, a fluid moment and no one has figured out an effective way to quiet this drift of nervous Democrats away from Biden and know many Dems want Biden to just break at some point soon.
I’ll take this as Joe Biden’s push back on Halperin’s reporting that he’s already agree to step down. Yeah, I won’t expect anything big this weekend on this front.
