"As support for the president has begun to collapse in public, things also seem chaotic behind closed doors. Dispatch Politics reported Sunday that prominent Never-Trump Republicans—including former Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele, lawyer George Conway, veteran Republican operative Mike Murphy, commentators Bill Kristol and Charlie Sykes, and strategist Sarah Longwell—met with top Biden campaign officials to urge the president to step aside."

A bunch of Republicans think he should step aside? Yeah, they have been saying that for a long time. They all also hate Harris.

I would listen to them and say 'thanks' and then let them go whine on their podcasts.

It just feels like they're trying to hide something from us.

Can you imagine the Washington Post allowing the NYT to report on things the Post reporters were doing and not reporting on it themselves?

The only thing I can infer is that the meeting didn't give ammunition for the preferred narrative, so it gets memory holed.

Or they were told to hold off for some reason.

Doesn't sound like they met with Biden. Just his campaign advisers.

Nobody meets with Biden, especially recently and in his current state. Meeting with campaign advisers is still significant.

That isn't true.
