Why Is the Squad Backing Biden So Forcefully?
Briefly

The Democratic Party has mostly coalesced behind President Biden after he confirmed he wouldn't leave the race, garnering support from traditional allies like Senator Coons and progressive members like the Squad.
Progressives like Representative Ocasio-Cortez are supporting Biden while also emphasizing issues like Medicare, Social Security, student loans, and ceasefire in Gaza, showing a pragmatic yet supportive stance.
The Squad, known for pushing on specific policy issues, has chosen to stand with Biden, exemplified by Representative Pressley's support, despite occasional disagreements like voting against the infrastructure bill.
While the Squad may dissent on some policies, they provide reliable Democratic votes and balance challenging Biden on certain issues with displaying solidarity, notably seen at events supporting initiatives like the American Climate Corps.
