Rep. Cori Bush said "100 percent" of constituents who have called her office have asked her to urge President Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race, but the Missouri Democrat defended him just three days earlier.
Bush was accepting campaign endorsements from labor groups during a Friday event when she shared her constituents' concerns.
"We are hearing from the community, but I will say right now, 100 percent of the phone calls into our office are asking me to ask the president to step out of the race," Bush said, a video posted by Spectrum News shows. "So, I am making it clear: If you have an opinion on it, please call our office, and let us know."
Days earlier, however, Bush defended Biden as the president faced calls from media pundits and even some fellow Democrats calling for him to drop out of the race over questions of his mental fitness.
"Right now, the same right-wing influences that are trying to take me down are trying to take down President Biden," Bush told reporters Tuesday. "We got to beat back these right-wing influences."
The far-left "Squad" member faces a difficult primary battle against St. Louis prosecuting attorney Wesley Bell. Jewish leaders urged Bell to challenge Bush and accused the incumbent of "fanning the flames of anti-Semitism" since Oct. 7.
On Thursday, Bush declined to comment on whether she supports Biden and if he should stay in the race.
"I can’t speak to that," Bush told ABC News. "I mean, that’s up to the president."
Since his disastrous June presidential debate, nearly two dozen House Democrats and one Senate Democrat have called on Biden to step aside and allow another nominee to emerge. Hollywood stars such as George Clooney echoed the calls to oust Biden.
Bush did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
