Tight-lipped House Dems still divided on Biden, leave closed-door meeting without consensus
Fox News
House Democrats held a closed door meeting on Tuesday to discuss their concerns and thoughts about President Biden's candidacy for re-election.
Others who have publicly expressed concerns about Biden's candidacy said they did so during the meeting as well. Democrats who spoke with Fox News Digital characterized those discussions as "respectful."

But lawmakers also conceded that they were on a rapidly-shrinking timeline to either mount a caucus-wide push against Biden or get in line behind him as the nominee. Democrats' nominating convention, in Chicago, is in mid-August. Follow on Twitter at @liz_elkind and send tips to elizabeth.elkind@fox.com
"I explained how I came to the decision to go public with my concerns, about how I made a lot of calls, and behind the scenes, and tried to get my voice heard before going public," Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., one of six House Democrats who's asked Biden to step aside, told Fox News Digital.
