If Biden loses to Trump one would think there'd be a lot of other Dems who are going to be out if they lose their battles. So if they thought Biden will lose wouldn't they be more vocal to protect themselves?
Not many are on the record endorsing him to stay in the race either though. It seems like Jeffries has basically said the majority of the house caucus wants him to step aside. Senators may be more likely to tell Biden their wishes privately.

I don't see a path forward where Biden stays in the race. How can he run if the Democrat House leader is on record saying he shouldn't?
