Man, they're trying to keep up party unity. Speaking out in public with anything except support for a candidate is inevitably read as opposition - the only two choices when talking on the subject are "I am behind [candidate] 100%" or a total Hail Mary "He needs to step down". And the progressives are in the worst position to make such a demand - if they did, they would inevitably be accused of not being 'team players' and ostracized within the party, even if Biden does step down.
