The last three weeks have been a cascade of fast-moving and damaging events for Mr. Biden. His awful debate performance set off rounds of Democratic second-guessing about whether he was their best hope...take many congressional Democrats down with him.
The shooting on Saturday complicated what Mr. Biden's campaign believes is one of its most potent campaign messages: that Mr. Trump poses an immediate and active threat...sent Democrats into yet another tailspin.
And then, as if the Democratic mood were not sour enough, on Monday morning Judge Aileen M. Cannon dismissed the documents case against Mr. Trump in Florida, removing a major legal threat.
"The vibe is grim," said Matt Bennett, the co-founder of Third Way, a Democratic think tank that has backed Mr. Biden for years. "I haven't talked to a single Democrat who is like, 'Things are fine.' It's universal."
