Senate Democrats got “heated” at a lunch with President Biden’s advisers this afternoon, Punchbowl News reports.
A number of Democrats told the Biden team that they’re “being put in an untenable position defending something that so many of their constituents felt was obvious.”
The message to Biden advisers, per one senator: “Where has he been?
The only way this is going to go away is if he deals with it. And he hasn’t dealt with it. And you guys have been avoiding it.”Said another senator: “A significant majority of the Democratic senators feel that the president’s not going to be able to win.”
