The first two days of the week, President Joe Biden seemed like he had put to rest many of the questions about whether he would remain the presidential nominee. But a funny thing happened on Wednesday: Democrats kept asking.

Unsatisfied with his answer that he intended to remain atop the ticket, Biden was shivved from all sorts of directions on Wednesday, a potential signal that Democrats intend to keep bloodying the president until he’s too weak and has no choice but to drop out.

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi stuck him in the morning, lightly suggesting he should reevaluate his decision.
