During a recent rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan, former President Donald Trump criticized former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, accusing her of betraying President Joe Biden. Trump called Pelosi “Crazy Nancy” and claimed she has suddenly shifted her support away from Biden. Referring to her as selling him out, Trump stated, “She turned on him like a dog,” questioning her sudden change of allegiance towards the current president.
A recent report by CNN suggested that Pelosi expressed concerns to Biden about his chances of winning the 2024 election, although it did not specify if she advised against him seeking reelection. Reacting to this news, Trump remarked, “Did you see Nancy Pelosi is selling out Biden now? She was one hundred percent, all of a sudden she’s not sure.”
Trump’s comment on Pelosi turning on Biden followed her appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe last week, during which she avoided explicitly endorsing Biden’s candidacy when questioned. While Pelosi emphasized that it was ultimately Biden’s decision on whether to run, she refrained from displaying explicit support.
Despite speculation and private conversations among senior Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, urging Biden to consider stepping down due to concerns about his age and chances of success, Biden has affirmed his commitment to continue running as the Democratic candidate.
Amid swirling discussions about his future in the race, Pelosi later appeared to affirm her support for Biden by defending his administration’s accomplishments and highlighting ongoing initiatives under his leadership.
