Biden campaign chair says president isn't going anywhere, despite calls to drop out
President Biden's re-election campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon told Morning Joe on MSNBC, "Absolutely the president is in this race."
"I'm not here to say that this hasn't been a tough several weeks for the campaign," she said. "There's no doubt that it has been, and we've definitely seen some slippage in support, but it has been a small movement."
According to Dillon, there are still several "pathways to victory" for Biden.
She also teased an endorsement for Biden "from a very significant national organization."
Her assurance that the president is staying in the 2024 race comes as Congressional Democratic support continues to peel off. On Friday morning a 23rd Democratic lawmakers asked the president to "pass the torch."
On Thursday evening, Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., became the second senator to call on Biden to drop out.
