Democratic presidential candidate Tim Ryan said Thursday he doesn’t have faith that a “declining” Joe Biden can defeat President Donald Trump in the general election next year.

“I just think Biden is declining,” Ryan said of the Democratic presidential campaign’s front-runner during a phone call. “I don’t think he has the energy. You see it almost daily. And I love the guy.”
