Nancy Pelosi Criticizes Biden's Late Exit from Presidential Race
Pelosi suggests that a timely withdrawal by Biden could have opened the field for other Democratic candidates, potentially altering the election outcome.
- Nancy Pelosi, a key figure in the Democratic Party, expressed regret over President Joe Biden's delayed decision to withdraw from the presidential race.
- Pelosi believes that Biden's late exit in July hindered the possibility of a competitive primary, which might have strengthened Kamala Harris's candidacy.
- Biden's immediate endorsement of Harris after his withdrawal reportedly made it nearly impossible for other Democrats to enter the race.
