Reports: Pelosi, Schumer express concerns Biden can’t win 2024 election

Support for President Joe Biden within his own party seems to be waning even more as he battles a case of COVID-19. New reports say former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told the president in a recent conversation that polling shows he can’t win over Trump, and he could ruin Democrats’ chances of winning other races if he stays on the ticket.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., have also reportedly both spoken with the president privately to discuss concerns over his refusal to step down.

The president has been insistent he will stay in the race. In an interview that aired Wednesday, July 17, Biden told BET’s Ed Gordon there’s only one way he’d reevaluate running.

“Is there anything that you would look to, you personally, not anybody else, not other pundits, not even perhaps family members, that you would look to, to say, if I see that, I will reevaluate?” Gordon asked.

“If I had some medical condition that emerged,” President Biden said. “If somebody, if the doctors came to me and said, ‘you got this problem, that problem.’”

The White House has confirmed the president tested positive for COVID-19 after an event in Las Vegas on Wednesday. Officials say he has mild symptoms and he cut his campaign visit to Nevada short after the diagnosis, canceling an event aimed at garnering support from Latino voters.

Biden is expected to remain in isolation at his home in Delaware for several days.
