Shapiro saeid he initially warned Biden&#8217;s staff about troubling signs but, feeling his concerns were not directly conveyed to Biden, he decided to <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >speak directly wiht<\/a> the former president during a meeting in Harrisburg. This disclosure came during an interview with NBC&#8217;s &#8220;Meet the Press.&#8221; Additionally, the article references former Vice President Kamala Harris&#8217;s upcoming book, &#8220;107 Days,&#8221; in which she criticizes the biden campaign&#8217;s decision to let Biden and Jill Biden decide on the reelection bid without wider consultation and describes her own difficult position in advising Biden on whether to run again. Shapiro declined to comment on whether Harris should have voiced her concerns directly to Biden. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Shapiro says he &lsquo;repeatedly&rsquo; questioned Biden&rsquo;s electability in Pennsylvania<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2237210\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Gov. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/josh-shapiro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Josh Shapiro<\/a> (D-PA) said he repeatedly warned former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/joe-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Joe Biden<\/a>&lsquo;s staff about Biden&rsquo;s bid for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/2024-elections\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reelection<\/a> before bringing his concerns to the former president directly.<\/p>\n<p>During an interview on NBC&rsquo;s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/meet-the-press\/video\/josh-shapiro-says-he-s-battled-emotional-scars-since-arson-attack-on-his-home-full-interview-248023621750\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Meet the Press<\/a><\/em>, Shapiro said he warned Biden&rsquo;s team about &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/new-poll-shows-latino-voters-more-likely-to-vote-to-recall-newsom-in-california\/\" title=\"New Poll Shows Latino Voters More Likely To Vote To Recall Newsom In California\">worrying signs<\/a>&rdquo; in the former president&rsquo;s 2024 reelection campaign but felt staff members did not relay his concerns directly to Biden.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/congressional\/3818225\/colin-allred-anti-corruption-message-flip-senate-seat-democrats\/\">Colin Allred preaches anti-corruption message in uphill bid to flip Texas Senate seat<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3818183\/watch-live-white-house-holds-press-briefing\/\">WATCH LIVE: White House holds press briefing<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3815468\/white-house-releases-details-deal-tiktok-us\/\">White House releases details on deal to save TikTok in US<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;I made a point to speak to the people around the president repeatedly about what I saw were worrying signs here in Pennsylvania.
