Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said she isn’t calling for President Biden to step down when asked about calls from Democrats for the president to do so in the wake of his negatively-reviewed presidential debate performance.
“I don’t know who’s doing that,” Pelosi said of the calls for Biden to step aside and make room for someone new to enter the race against former President Trump, according to MSNBC, in an audio clip played on anchor Ali Velshi’s show Saturday.
“I’m not doing it,” Pelosi said in the clip.
Biden’s debate performance, during which he had a raspy voice and stumbled over his words, sparked widespread fears among his party and raised questions about his viability at the top of the ticket. Even staunch Democratic figures, including those who have previously worked with former President Obama, let their feelings be known about how they thought Thursday night’s debate between Biden and former President Trump went.
“Obviously that debate was a f‑‑‑ing disaster,” former Obama administration speechwriter and “Pod Save America” co-host Jon Favreau posted Friday morning on the social platform X. “We have to beat Donald Trump. We have to have a nominee who can do that.”
Former Obama senior adviser and Democratic strategist David Axelrod said his party was rattled in the wake of the debate.
“I think there was a sense of shock, actually, at how he came out at the beginning of this debate. How his voice sounded. He seemed a bit disoriented. He did get stronger as the debate went on,” Axelrod said. “I think you’re going to hear discussions that I don’t know will lead to anything but there are going to be discussions about whether he should continue.”

Good for you Joe. Stick to your guns.
Maybe Chuck “Raw Hamburger” Schumer should lead the charge to dump Joey.
Gin Pickled Pelosi seems unwilling.
Chuck “Cheeseburger” Schumer has yet to weigh in. What say you Cheesy?
LOL! The sum total of the person and their record is worse than that debate disaster, John. The ‘rats are this stupid, crazy, destructive, dangerous. That collective should be eliminated from a “free” republic.
Thank you, Nancy. Biden hasn’t been running the presidency since he has been in office. So the next few months isn’t going to hurt.
Chip Roy needs to butt out.
One Democrat Crime Family saying they aren’t going to go after another Democrat Crime Family.
How quaint.
LOL!
Of course not. Jill knows where here skeletons are buried and Nancy knows where pedojoe's are. It's a Mexican standoff, but amongst unsavory types.
Lookit the Democrat wordsmiths at The Shill slather that Durabond joint compound all over The Tater's debate fail.
They'll smooth this mess over, you betcha!
The gerontocracy of puppets looks out for its own. What will the communist DP do when all the old white-fronts die? How is the communist DP, a party controlled by foreign interests, going to move forward when all of its politicians are feral, disgusting foreigners and ghetto trash?
Keep Joe in. The stress of his son’s upcoming tax trial and sentencing for both one will expedite Joey’s dementia.
When the bombs start falling, I hope they start with the West Coast.
Nanzi the Hammer Queen isn’t going against the demented creep. Her just her style.
I don’t understand why anyone with at least functioning brain cell would trust anything a politician says...especially a LIB/leftist loser politician.
...at least one functioning...
I just watched her with Dana Bash on CNN. Pelosi was a rambling mess and Bash was surprisingly almost fair to Trump... at least more than usual.
Pelosi on Democrats calling for Biden to step down.
“I’m not doing it.” We stole it the last time. We can steal it this time too.
She knows there’s a lot of insider trading left in Joey yet.
SanFranNan won’t do it because she’s afraid she’ll be the next one.
