I don’t know what Joe Biden did to get on the bad side of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), but she has been continually throwing him under the bus since his disastrous June debate performance, and many think she was the chief architect of the “coup” that forced him out of the race.
Maybe it’s as simple as the fact that she no longer needed him anymore once he proved he might harm Dems’ chances in down-ballot races?
She was at it again Friday, appearing on New York Times columnist Ezra Klein’s podcast to throw out the conspiracy theory that Biden didn’t actually write the infamous letter in July claiming he had no intention of quitting his campaign despite the immense pressure for him to do so. Less than two weeks later, he did exactly that.
Pelosi seemed to be talking as much with her eyes as she was with her words, as she knowingly gesticulated with her hands in a sort of “wink, wink, know what I mean?” manner.
Watch:
Pelosi admits that there is no actual president. Staff are writing and sending hugely consequential world-shaping letters from him without his knowledge and awareness. Which begs the question: who the hell is running the country right now? https://t.co/iYQhEtBjee

“I didn’t accept the letter as anything but a letter,” she said.
What does that even mean? What else would you accept it as? Then she added, “I mean…” and went into the mugging act that I referred to, trying to say with her face that something mysterious had occurred. Wink wink, nudge nudge.
Then she got weird, first saying that some people were unhappy with the letter but then revising it to say some people said that some people were unhappy with the letter. Can a person get more weaselly?
I mean, there were are some people who were unhappy with the letter. Um, let me say that some said that some people were unhappy with the letter. I’ll put in somebody else’s mouth.
Don’t turn your back when she’s in the room:

It was only two days after that letter that Pelosi hammered what many think was the final nail in his campaign, refusing to acknowledge that he had just said he was still running and saying, “It’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run. We’re all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short.” He just said he was staying in the campaign.
This was yet another weird performance by an always-weird woman. It boggles my mind that she appears to be one of the most powerful people in Washington, as evidenced by her toppling of the president of the United States. She’s frankly downright creepy—did you see the glee she took while accusing the president of fraud?
She may very well be right, though; it’s hard to imagine Ole Joe having the wherewithal to pen that missive. But as Trump advisor Stephen Miller pointed out in the tweet above, then who the heck is running the country?
Pelosi just made an extremely good argument for the 25th Amendment. With the devious octogenarian Californian, it’s hard to know what she’s after here—but I certainly wouldn’t put it past her.
