Washington Post: Biden said to be increasingly frustrated by dismal poll numbers 

The night before President Biden departed Washington to celebrate Thanksgiving on Nantucket, Mass., he gathered his closest aides for a meeting in the White House residence.

Update: Report: Joe Biden Complains He Is Losing to Donald Trump (Breitbart)  

WNU Editor: Biden's campaign team still feel confident .... The Alarming Calm of the Biden Campaign Inside reelection HQ, the president’s aides feel confident that the 2024 race is totally under control (NYMag).
