Pelosi on the phone with Biden: You can't win
Nancy Pelosi reportedly told Joe Biden that polls show he cannot win over Donald Trump. This is reported by CNN with reference to four independent sources.
In the phone call, Pelosi further said that Biden could destroy the Democrats' chances of getting a new president in the White House, if Biden continues to try to win a second term.
American media reports that Biden has recently become more inclined to listen to objections to his candidacy, but this does not seem to apply in the conversation with Pelosi, where the president instead went on the defensive and replied to Pelosi that he had seen opinion polls that show that he can indeed win .
