Nancy Pelosi, whose fingerprints are all over the defenestration of President Biden, has expressed deep sadness at the rupture in their relationship.
The two go back decades, to a time when a then-young Delaware Sen. Joe Biden was on the rise and Pelosi, a mother of five and devoted Democratic Party volunteer, hosted one of San Francisco's must-stop political salons. (The kids were pressed into duty as waitstaff.)
She now praises Biden as one of the nation's greatest and most consequential presidents, deserving, even, of a place on Mt. Rushmore.
But when it comes to campaigns and elections, the former House speaker has never had much use for sentimentality, priding herself on a reptilian cold-bloodedness...
It's all just business, of course, though Biden hasn’t seen it that way. Pelosi has acknowledged as much. The two — once close — haven't spoken since the president grudgingly stepped aside nearly a month ago.
Translation: “I just wanted to hold onto power at any cost, Biden and anyone else be damned.”
