 On the Democratic side, the calls for President Biden to bow out of the race are only growing louder. Now, The Washington Post reports former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has privately told some House Democrats she believes the president can be convinced to exit the race fairly soon. Pelosi and her aides have not publicly discussed her talks with her congressional colleagues. Along with Pelosi, party leaders, including former President Obama, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, have also reportedly conveyed their concerns about Biden's continuing candidacy.
