Rep. Pat Ryan, D-N.Y., speaks to reporters at the National Purple Heart Museum in New Windsor, N.Y. Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2022. Ryan is running for re-election in New York’s 18th Congressional District. **FILE**Rep. Pat Ryan on Wednesday became the eighth House Democrat to call on President Biden to end his presidential campaign, arguing he is “no longer the best candidate to defeat Trump.”
Mr. Ryan is a “Frontline” House Democrat, a designation the party’s campaign arm gives to incumbents considered vulnerable in their reelection races. He is only the second Frontline Democrat, after Rep. Angie Craig, to publicly call on Mr. Biden to step aside, but others have expressed private concerns about the president’s ability to beat Mr. Trump and the impact his candidacy could have on their races.
“These are the opposite of elites,” Mr. Ryan said. “These are people eating hot dogs and drinking beer and talking about my Yankees and where the country’s at and expressing some pretty deep and weighty things.”
