“We have always expressed repeatedly and directly, including to the president of the United States himself, the need to make change, structural change in the campaign, change around strategy, change around how we make investments and spending,” Rep. Steven Horsford, D-Nev., told reporters at the Capitol on Thursday, July 11. “To do what — to win in November.”

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., told Straight Arrow News he also wants to see strategy changes but said he would rather not reveal specifics.
“I think we have people who have conveyed that to the White House,” Cleaver said.
“I’m not going to comment on that,” Rep. Joe Neguse, D-Colo., said. “I would just simply say that as someone who was on the House floor and in the House chamber on January 6 and as a former impeachment manager, I think that a second Donald Trump presidency would be deeply dangerous and destructive for our country.”
The New York Times reported the Biden campaign is conducting a survey of voters to test Vice President Kamala Harris’ strength as a candidate against Donald Trump.
“While some of Mr. Biden’s top aides have quietly argued that Ms. Harris could not win the election, donors and other outside supporters of the vice president believe she might be in a stronger position after the debate, and could be a more energetic communicator of the party’s message,” the Times report said.
Democratic leadership in Congress is not calling for Biden to drop out. However, members are putting on the pressure to finalize a path to victory quickly, with or without the president.
“I think we have time to make some decisions and start some movement,” Cleaver said. “But I don’t think we have a lot of time. I don’t think we just kind of lollygag for the next 10 days and hope everything turns out.”
The president will host a solo press conference Thursday night during the NATO summit. He also agreed to sit down with NBC News for a taped interview that will air on Monday, July 15.
