“Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told President Joe Biden last week that she and other Democratic lawmakers worry that he’s dragging down the party, in an extraordinarily candid confrontation that came amid mounting pressure on Biden to end his reelection campaign,” Politico reports.
“Pelosi also warned Biden that some Democratic lawmakers would start to grow louder in their griping about his political weaknesses, according to two people close to Pelosi. She urged the president to make a decision about stepping down soon.”
Said a Pelosi ally: “The speaker does not want to call on him to resign, but she will do everything in her power to make sure it happens.”
CNN: Pelosi privately told Biden polls show he cannot win and will take down the House.
