Democrats who called on Biden to exit the presidential race soon after his debate with Trump feel gratified by her candidacy so far.
Tim Ryan, the former Ohio congressman, said he 'took a lot of hits' from his fellow Democrats in late June, when he became the first Democrat to publicly recommend Vice President Kamala Harris replace President Biden atop the Democratic ticket, after Biden's disastrous debate performance.Ryan made waves and headlines on July 2, when he launched a media tour recommending not just that Mr. Biden abandon his reelection bid, but specifically said Harris should be the new nominee.
' Doggett was the first sitting member of Congress to publicly urge Biden to stand down. Speaking near the House floor between votes this week, Doggett told CBS News he was pleased dozens of other congressional Democrats later joined his call for a new nominee, but didn't expect several days or weeks would pass before others would make similar public statements. 'The speed of it was a little slower than I would have liked,' Doggett said.
