As she prepares to exit the White House, first lady Jill Biden reflected on her relationships during an interview with The Washington Post, and revealed she was disappointed in former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., who played a big role in the president dropping out of the 2024 race.
"It’s been on my mind a lot lately, and—" the first lady said. "We were friends for 50 years. It was disappointing," she told the Post in a piece published Wednesday.
Pelosi joined the co-hosts of "Morning Joe" in July, following the president's disastrous debate performance, and said, "It’s up to the president to decide if he is going to run," despite Biden's repeated assurance that he would remain in the race.
"Let’s just say I was disappointed with how it unfolded," the first lady said.
