The Washington Post reported that three Democratic officials who are familiar with private conversations with former Speaker of the House Pelosi said that she told some House Democrats that she believes President Biden will soon be persuaded to withdraw from the presidential race because people have serious doubts about whether he can win in November's election. Previously, Biden's intermittent performance in the debate caused panic among Democrats inside and outside Washington. Pelosi played a strong role behind the scenes, trying to resolve the political crisis, acting as an intermediary for emotionally unstable ordinary Democrats, and conveying this information to the White House.
