Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) separately met with Biden in the last week. AdvertisementIt’s not clear what, exactly, Schumer and Jeffries told Biden in their private meetings. But another source familiar with what happened in both meetings told HuffPost that neither Schumer nor Jeffries told Biden they thought he should drop out. “Unless ABC’s source is Senator Chuck Schumer or President Joe Biden the reporting is idle speculation,” said this Schumer spokesperson. “Leader Schumer conveyed the views of his caucus directly to President Biden on Saturday.”
