Relevant portion of interview here.

“I think it’s a legitimate question to say, is this an episode or is this a condition? When people ask that question, it’s completely legitimate — of both candidates.”

Of course she's quick to "both-sides" the night, but that's politics for you. If she's saying this during an interview, I can only speculate on what's going on behind closed doors. The wagons are not closing around the Biden campaign.

So you admit there isn't actually a significant difference between the two. Just two standard issue neoliberal boomer trashcans we're forced to support and lose to fascism anyways.

... why are you talking like we're in a debate?

Seriously, it's not a "gotcha" to point out Pelosi is awful. I'm not being forced to support Pelosi at all, we're talking about a hypothetical that you suggested, not the current reality.

Are you alright? If you just want to rant about neoliberal bullshit I can listen. I'm a socialist, I get it.
