Nancy Pelosi got hilariously taken apart once again after slurring her way through another interview, this time staunchly defending former President Joe Biden from fellow Democrats who were calling for him to drop out of the Presidential race due to his clear physical and mental decline.
For context, during a June 30, 2024, interview on CNN, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went on her signature anti-Trump tirade, all the while struggling to enunciate her words as she repeatedly referred to President Trump as “the other guy” while defending Biden. In response, conservatives sounded off on X, saying that she sounded like she was “hungover or still wasted.”
During the interview, Pelosi was asked for her reaction to a poll that determined that 72% of voters “say they don’t think that the president is fit mentally or cognitively to be president.” She responded, “Well, what do they think about the other guy? Do they think that he has the Integrity to be president after that performance?”
Continuing, Pelosi said, “Let us discuss,” adding, “Let us discuss. Let us not make a judgment about a presidency on one, um, one debate. Let’s talk about what it means to people in their lives, and that’s why you’re not seeing much change in the polls on this.” She went on to say, “The difference between Joe Biden and the former president is so clear.”
Moreover, the former House speaker was asked if “there is any part” of her that “believes that President Biden should step aside,” to which she replied, “I want you to know I came home to California, south and north, and people are for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.” She added, “They have some judgment about a person who sat on that, stood on that stage and lied, lied, lied, lied.”
Next, Pelosi said that her people “are very much Biden/Kamala Harris, and this is an opportunity for Joe Biden to go out there and show he has the stamina and the rest…and, by the way, while the press, and for some reason, there are uh, uh, healthc- healthcare professionals who think that, uh, Trump has dementia, that his connection, his thoughts do not go together.”
Refusing to let up, Pelosi said of President Trump, “Not only that, he just lies. He doesn’t even know the truth. So, if we’re just talking about mental acuity, let’s be fair about it.” Bizarrely, she added, “I don’t think Tom Fredman thinks that, that Donald Trump should be president of the United States.” She continued, stuttering even more, “And, you know, while, while he may be saying we’re enablers, we see Joe Biden up close. We know how atturned he…are to the issues, how informed he is.”

After a clip from Pelosi’s interview went viral, conservatives ripped into her in the comments section on X, speculating that she may have been intoxicated. The Breaking911 X account wrote that many were questioning “if she is hungover or still wasted,” and a commenter chimed in, “This was early Sunday morning. It’s a real possibility Pelosi was still drunk.”
