“Publicly, top Democrats say they support President Biden running for re-election and think he can win. Privately, their worries are increasing but they are resigned to the idea that he isn’t going anywhere, and there is no viable Plan B,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

But this is in many ways a different case—a sitting president facing clear frustration from voters, including those within his own party.”
