"I myself, just don’t tell anybody I told you this, especially don’t tell Joe Biden," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told Capitol Hill reporters on Thursday. "I don't think there should be any debates."
"I do not think that the president of the United States has comported himself in a way that anybody has associations with truth, evidence, data and facts," Pelosi said of President Trump. "I wouldn't legitimize a conversation with him."
Pelosi said she doesn't want to see a repeat of 2016, with Trump "stalking Hillary Clinton like that." During one part of the candidates' town hall debate, Trump appeared to stand directly behind Clinton while she was answering a question. The speaker said it was "disgraceful" and that she would have told Trump to stay in his corner of the stage.
Pelosi believes that Trump will act in a way that is "beneath the dignity" of the office and "belittle" the debates. She also used the word, "skullduggery" more than once.

Wow. Just like she wouldn’t “legitimize” the State of the Union speech.
Remember when Speakers and Presidents used to work together despite differences? Yeah ... those were good times.
Maybe Nanzi could tear up Joe’s debate questions and put them in a mailbox?
I smell a rat. Everything they do is calculated. We shouldn’t fall into low expectation trap. Watch Demented Joe come out into the air, shake his fist, while demanding a debate, even if it never happens.
The President will love to hear this.
Blubberin’ Biden can’t put a coherent thought to words. We all know it.
wow... i didn’t think anyone use skullduggery anymore...
the democrats must be knee deep in skullduggery to actually use the term skullduggery about someone else.
shenanigans, but skullduggery?
just wow.
Evil Trump had all the mailboxes in the entire nation removed and destroyed, so that won’t work.
She knows he’s toast, and that it’s better off they focus on the House and Senate races.
Only the Declaration of Independence's "Supreme Judge of the world" (See Declaration) can do that, Nancy!
If Joe debates Trump, then Joe loses the election.
If Joe refuses to debate Trump, then Joe loses the election.
Not a good spot to be in, but they can’t say nobody warned them.
I watched the Trump-Clinton debate where the “stalking” incident happened. Clinton left her side of the stage and came and stood in front of Trump’s podium to talk at the audience on his side of the stage. Trump didn’t cross over to her side.

And they will throw in a new fake Covid numbers spike as insurance.
Hillary did not have the mental acumen to slice and dice VSG President Donald Trump.
sleepy Joe, with 50 years of government experience under his belt, does not have what it takes to expose VSG President Trump?????
I think it’s an admission they are throwing in the towel on Biden.
In fact, I think deep down they want Trump to win, so they can continue their antics, it’s more fun that way.
Who did not see this coming?
They have been focus testing the “spin” for the media to parrot and it is obviously - “Trump lies so why would we debate a liar.”
Remember, these are the same people who thought riots were a great idea for their campaign.....
How does the press decide who has to cover Nancy’s daily drunken conferences? Short straw?
