I did not have ‘Pelosi takes on the gerontocracy’ on my 2024 bingo card

One Pelosi ally said it was possible she would press Biden publicly to give up his spot atop the Democratic ticket.

“The speaker does not want to call on him to resign, but she will do everything in her power to make sure it happens,” this person said, referring to Biden quitting the race.

    Yes. I’m a leftist, not someone that blindly follows charismatic politicians. And Im not gonna oppose something just because a politician I dislike advocates for it. Policy>personality

    I also disagree with Pelosi’s reasoning for wanting Biden to drop out. She just thinks he can’t win. I think Joe should step aside since he enacts genocidal policies.
