During an appearance on the network, Pelosi touted President Bidenā€™s record on the economy, saying, he ā€œcreated 9 million jobs in his term in office. Donald Trump has the worst record of job loss of any president. So we just have to make sure people know.ā€

Host Katy Tur briefly interjected, telling Pelosi ā€œthere was a global pandemicā€ during Trumpā€™s presidency.

Pelosi paused, looking shocked, before shooting back at Tur that ā€œhe had the worst record of any president. Weā€™ve had other concerns in our country.ā€

ā€œIf you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump, that may be your role, but it ainā€™t mine,ā€ she added.

    Moving left will not lose Biden any votes. The Trump supporters will not change; theyā€™re ride or die for that idiot. The disenfranchised and the youth have nothing to vote for, only something to vote against. Give those people a reason to come out to the polls. This election feels more like extortion than anything else.

      My boomer in-laws have voted D their entire lives, but are considering voting Trump because they think Biden is too liberal. They are not as unusual as you might think.
