Nancy Pelosi thinks the Democrats lost the presidential election – because of Joe Biden.
According to the former speaker of the House of Representatives, Biden waited far too long to drop out as a presidential candidate.
She tells the New York Times.
– If the president had left earlier, we would have had more candidates to choose from.
However, Pelosi believes that Harris would have been a strong candidate in an open primary.
– But it didn’t happen that way. We have to live with what happened. Since the president immediately chose Harris, it became next to impossible to have a primary.
She continues:
– If it had happened earlier, things would have looked different.
Pelosi is said to have expressed concern about the president’s candidacy – already two weeks before he dropped out, according to CNN.
