House Democrats Furious with Dean Phillips

“As President Joe Biden’s party frets openly over his reelection bid, House Democrats are growing more furious with one of their own — Dean Phillips — over his long-shot primary challenge to the president,” Politico reports.

“Even Democrats who insist their Minnesota colleague won’t hurt Biden in the end are aghast that Phillips would take the risk by running. It doesn’t help that he has centered his campaign on critiquing Biden’s age amid lackluster recent polls that show voters share the same concern about the 80-year-old president.”

Said Rep. Annie Kuster (D-NH): “It’s threatening the success of the Democratic ticket from top to bottom.”
