Pelosi Reportedly Tells Biden He Cannot Win, Will Cost Dems Their Chance of Winning Back the House

As Democrats’ concerns about President Joe Biden’s chances of winning in November are in overdrive, influential officials in the party have reportedly told him he will not win.

On Wednesday, CNN reported former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) “privately told President 👤Joe Biden in a recent conversation that polling shows that the president cannot defeat Donald Trump and that Biden could destroy Democrats’ chances of winning the House in November if he continues seeking a second term, according to four sources briefed on the call.”

“The president responded by pushing back, telling Pelosi he has seen polls that indicate he can win, one source said. Another one of the sources described Biden as getting defensive about the polls. At one point, Pelosi asked Mike Donilon, Biden’s longtime adviser, to get on the line to talk over the data,” the article continued.

Still, the outlet reported that sources familiar with the call did not say whether Pelosi told Biden she believes he should drop out.

The reported call comes after Pelosi seemed to revive the push to oust Biden earlier this month when she told MSNBC that Biden has to “decide if he is going to run,” despite him saying he is committing to doing so.
