From The Hill: Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said in a podcast interview released Thursday that she has “never been that impressed” with President Biden’s “political operation.”
“I’ve never been that impressed with his political operation,” Pelosi said of Biden in an interview with The New Yorker’s David Remnick on a Thursday episode of “The New Yorker Radio Hour.”
Pelosi’s comments follow The Hill’s reporting that, out of public sight, the California Democrat pushed the president to leave the 2024 presidential race, which he eventually did.
Pelosi has denied pressing Biden to leave the 2024 presidential race, but in the interview with Remnick, she said she did not believe Biden had a good chance of defeating former President Trump.
The New Yorker quotes Pelosi as saying, “I’ve never been that impressed with his political operation. They won the White House. Bravo. But my concern was: this [2024] ain’t happening, and we have to make a decision for this to happen. The President has to make the decision for that to happen. People were calling. I never called one person. I kept true to my word. Any conversation I had, it was just going to be with him. I never made one call. They said I was burning up the lines, I was talking to Chuck Schumer. I didn’t talk to Chuck at all.”

Despite that she admits she personally pushed Biden to drop out of the 2024 race, and now says she was “never that impressed with his political operation,” Pelosi tried to smooth it over in a CBS interview earlier this week by touting that he deserves to be added to Mount Rushmore.

Pelosi is believed to be one of the main conspirators who successfully forced Biden out of the presidential race.
