The two Democratic heavyweights have held just a single conversation since Biden faced backlash for his lackluster showing in the June 27 debate. During their talk, Obama apparently conveyed concerns that Biden’s chances against Donald Trump were “greatly diminished,” according to the Washington Post.

Insiders also disclosed to the Washington Post that Obama has been busy fielding calls from jittery Democrats on Capitol Hill, including House Speaker emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).

Notably, Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) – the top honchos of the Democratic party in Congress – reportedly had private discussions with Biden, cautioning the 81-year-old Joe Biden about the potential for a major drubbing for Democrats come Election Day.
