Key quotes:

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is working furiously behind the scenes to put pressure on President Biden to reconsider his place at the top of the 2024 ticket, according to a number of Democratic lawmakers familiar with her efforts.

The Speaker emerita is talking to a broad swath of House Democrats — from front-liners in tough districts to hardened veterans with institutional clout — to pump the brakes on the notion that Biden should definitively be the party’s nominee heading into November, these lawmakers said.

Pelosi has not said Biden should exit the race, but the lawmakers said she harbors deep concerns about Biden’s ability to defeat former President Trump, and she’s fighting to prevent the party from rubber-stamping Biden’s candidacy before there’s a broader discussion about the potentially damaging consequences of that decision.

    Are you suggesting I’m trolling? Motherfucker, if that fat radioactive orange piece of shit were in front of me right now, I’d stab him with my chef’s knife. I’m not trolling or being disingenuous. I want someone to bury his ass in the ground.

      What you are doing is a form of gaslighting/ trolling. Its a way to derail/ sidestep the central issue of the conversation.

      You maybe have gaslit yourself into a specific set of beliefs, but that doesn’t make them reality.
