Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday she doesn’t think there should be any presidential debates ahead of the November election, arguing Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden shouldn't "legitimize" a discussion with President Trump.
“I don’t think that there should be any debates,†Pelosi told reporters. “I do not think that the president of the United States has comported himself in a way that anybody has any association with truth, evidence, data and facts.â€
“I wouldn’t legitimize a conversation with him nor a debate in terms of the presidency of the United States,†she added.
“I think that he’ll probably act in a way that is beneath the dignity of the presidency,†she said, citing what she called his “disgraceful†actions during the 2016 debates with Hillary Clinton.
