Pelosi made the remarks in an interview with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell.
“Do you have questions as to whether this [Biden’s debate performance] was one bad night or whether there is something more serious involved? And whether he [Biden] needs to be more open…about if he does have a medical condition, if he is slipping…everybody knows there’s an age issue and he certainly did the opposite of reassuring people with that high risk, potentially high reward debate plan that they came up with. It backfired,” Mitchell said to Pelosi.
“My experience with Joe Biden is that with all the legislation that we passed to save the country…he was masterful in helping to orchestrate, to write and to pass, and so, he has a vision, he has knowledge. He has judgment. He has a strategic thinking…he has a bad night. Now, I think it’s a legitimate question to say, ‘Is this an episode or is this a condition?’ So, when people ask that question, it’s completely legitimate, of both candidates,” Pelosi said before trashing Trump.
“I tore up his [Trump’s] speech when he lied to the Congress…we should be tearing up what he said the other day [at the debate] because it was a pack of lies,” she claimed, adding that it’s “very hard to debate somebody when you have to undo, debunk everything they’re saying.”
