WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has sunk so low that former Vice President Joe Biden should not even "legitimize" him by debating him in the presidential election, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday.
Biden has already agreed to take part in three presidential debates before the November election, but Pelosi told reporters, "I don't think that there should be any debates."
She explained she did not think "the president of the United States has comported himself in a way that anybody should, and has any association with truth, evidence, data, and facts," and as a result, any debate with him would just be an "exercise in skullduggery" by Trump.
"I wouldn't legitimize a conversation with him, nor a debate in terms of the presidency of the United States," she said, though she acknowledged that the Biden campaign had a different view on the debates. Pelosi called Trumps's conduct during his 2016 debates with Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton "disgraceful."
