MSNBC: Bidens have arrived in Pittsburgh.
Joe Biden is going to Pennsylvania today. Top Democrats are avoiding him.

President Joe Biden's planned visit to Pennsylvania on Friday tells you everything you need to know about his current dismal political standing.
Biden is set to be in Pittsburgh for an event designed to promote the infrastructure package passed into law last year. (Biden is still going forward with the trip following a bridge collapse in the city Friday morning.) When he stops by the Steel City, two of the state's top Democrats won't be there.
Both Pennsylvania Lt. Gov, John Fetterman and Attorney General Josh Shapiro are not slated to appear with Biden, citing scheduling conflicts. Which, well, riiiiight.
The truth is that if Biden was at 60% approval either nationally or in Pennsylvania those scheduling conflicts would likely resolve themselves and Fetterman and Shapiro would be in Pittsburgh to bask in Biden's reflected glow. That he is some 15-20 points below that mark guarantees that candidates on the ballot in 2022 are comfortable ghosting him.
After all, Fetterman and Shapiro are running for higher office this November. Shapiro is the de facto Democratic nominee for the state's open gubernatorial seat, while Fetterman is the early front-runner for the Democratic Senate nomination. (One of Fetterman's primary opponents, Rep. Conor Lamb, is expected to attend Biden's event.) Given that, Fetterman and Shapiro are acutely aware of Biden's standing in the battleground state – and are staying away. Neither man is terribly eager to have a bunch of pictures taken of them standing with Biden or a slew of media stories about them supporting the President.

They sure did have it.
