Tapper Interviews Pelosi At DNC
During the first night of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made headlines by openly discussing her role in what many are calling a pressure campaign aimed at getting President Biden to suspend his re-election bid. This move ultimately paved the way for Vice President Kamala Harris to secure the Democratic nomination without a single primary vote cast.
When CNN host Jake Tapper questioned Pelosi about her involvement and whether she had spoken with President Biden since his unprecedented decision, Pelosi didn’t shy away from the topic. “I did what I had to do,” Pelosi stated, emphasizing that her concern was the campaign, not the president himself. Her frank admission highlighted her central role in the events that led to Biden’s decision.

Reports have surfaced that Pelosi, along with former President Barack Obama and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, were key figures in orchestrating a plan to pressure Biden to step aside. According to sources, Biden’s endorsement of Harris was a strategic move, described by some as his way of maintaining control and pushing back against party leaders who were reportedly considering alternatives, including a “mini primary” to determine a new nominee.
The tension between Pelosi and Biden, as reported by multiple outlets, seems far from resolved. The former House Speaker reportedly used her influence to convey serious concerns about Biden’s ability to campaign effectively, even threatening to release damaging polling data if he didn’t step down. This intense pressure culminated in what has been described as a “come to Jesus moment” for Biden, leading him to instruct his team to draft a letter of resignation from the race.
But what really stood out was the look on Pelosi’s face when the crowd was chanting for Biden.
