Biden not in contact with Dem leaders on the Hill, reports say

President Biden has not personally reached out to Democratic leaders such as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer or House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, according to a report from NBC.

President Biden has not reached out to Democratic leaders following the disastrous debate performance that has raised questions about his ability to run for re-election, according to reports.

Biden – who suffered a crushing defeat last week in the first presidential debate of the election season – has not made contact with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., according to NBC. He also reportedly has not spoken directly with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y.

However, White House chief of staff Jeff Zients has made contact with both Schumer and Jeffries following the debate, NBC reports.
