Ryan said that both Republicans and Democrats should embrace a younger generation of leaders when he was asked if he thought Biden should run.
Ryan's comments are in line with those of two Minnesota Democrats who are running for reelection.
In late July,Phillips became the first Democrat in Congress to say Biden shouldn't run in 2024, telling a Minneapolis radio station that the country would be well-served by a new generation of compelling, well-prepared, dynamic Democrats.

Hours after his comments aired, Ryan attended an event with Biden. Ryan has received the endorsement of Biden.
According to polling, most Democratic voters don't want Biden to be the party's presidential nominee in 2024, and while only a few officials have publicly said it's time to move on from Biden, reports suggest many Democrats are hoping he doesn't run. Biden is by far the oldest president in the nation's history and his advanced age is the biggest worry. Biden can point to a number of accomplishments recently, such as signing the Inflation Reduction Act into law, the most significant new federal gun control measures in decades, and a series of strong jobs reports, which have begun to ease concerns about his approval rating. In late July, Biden's approval rating was 37.5%, but according to FiveThirtyEight's polling average, he has an approval rating of 42%.
Ryan claims to be willing to clash with Democratic leaders when he feels the party is too far to the left. Ryan's House votes align with Biden's position 100% of the time.
