It appears that elected Democrats are falling back in line behind President Joe Biden’s candidacy, which makes their admissions about his lack of ability all the more insane.

Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) became the first Senate Democrat to really pour on the pessimism. Bennet said privately, and then admitted publicly, that Biden was on track to lose and drag the whole party down with him. “I did say that behind closed doors,” Bennet said, reiterating publicly that “Donald Trump is on track, I think, to win this election and maybe win it by a landslide and take with it the Senate and the House.”
