Sure they have safe seats, but they still have to get something for their support.

Nothing in politics is "free".

They don't have to get much, because the cost is so low for them - as long as they make sure not to actually give Biden the type of support he most desperately needs. It's childishly easy to affirm support for the things he's done in office they agree with (he spent money to fight climate change! he's cut student debt! he's been Not Donald Trump!), or that his policies in his second term would be better than Trump's.

As soon as we see any of them stating in public, unambiguously, that they believe that Biden's still got the communication skills and dependable verbal acuity necessary to beat Donald Trump - not just the right record or policies - then we'll know that they're putting skin in the game.
