Pelosi Confirms She and Biden Have Not Spoken Since Ouster
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is believed to have been one of the power brokers behind Joe Biden being ousted from the election.
Of course, she has denied this, but she has also very slyly hinted that she was a player; it’s as if she always measures the audience to see how they are leaning on this particular issue.
Whether she will admit it or not, Joe Biden clearly holds her accountable because the two of them have not spoken since.
No Words
Pelosi was recently asked if she and Joe are talking again, and Pelosi confirmed they have not spoken since Biden stepped down.
She stated, “Not since then, no. But I’m prayerful about it.
“I have the greatest respect for him. I think he’s one of the great consequential presidents of our country.
“I think his legacy had to be protected. I didn’t see that happening in the course that it was on, the election was on. My call was just to: ‘Let’s get on a better course.’
“He will make the decision as to what that is. And he made that decision. But I think he has some unease because we’ve been friends for decades.
“Elections are decisions. You decide to win. I decided a while ago that Donald Trump will never set foot in the White House again as president of the United States or in any other capacity … So when you make a decision, you have to make every decision in favor of winning … and the most important decision of all is the candidate.”
When you consider the clout that Pelosi carries, that is really saying something.
You also have to consider how long these two have been friends and how much Biden has leaned on her for counsel in the past.
I would imagine that Joe will remain silent through the election, and if Harris losses, I fully expect Joe to take a victory lap and shove it in everyone’s face.
Even though polling said differently, Joe was confident he would have beaten Trump, and I expect that will be the line of bravado that he chooses to push post-election if Harris loses.
