Nancy Pelosi has weirdly suggested that Joe Biden deserves a spot on Mount Rushmore, which has many scratching their heads.
The former House Speaker made this weird suggestion during a CBS interview with Lesley Stahl, while discussing Biden’s decision to exit the 2024 presidential race.
Pelosi’s comparison of Biden to the historical giants memorialized on Mount Rushmore seems like a joke, but Pelosi was serious.
When Stahl questioned the comparison to Lincoln, Pelosi awkwardly pivoted, mentioning Theodore Roosevelt’s presence on the monument and suggesting Biden could simply be added.
This comparison ignores the vast differences between Roosevelt’s and Biden’s presidencies and historical impact.

Theodore Roosevelt actually accomplished things while Joe Biden may or may not even know what he did while in office.
Theodore Roosevelt didn’t sell his country out for millions using his family as the conduit, unlike Joe the “Big Guy” Biden.
Nancy Pelosi said Joe Biden is a “Mount Rushmore kind of President” and we should find a way to add him to the monument.

It’s also worth noting that Mount Rushmore hasn’t been altered in over 80 years, making Pelosi’s suggestion even more clownish.
The interview also addressed reports that Pelosi had pushed for Biden’s removal from the 2024 ticket.
She firmly lied about denied these claims, stating, “I didn’t call one person.”
However, this denial conflicts with multiple reports indicating Pelosi had indeed pressured Biden to step down, citing electability concerns against Trump.
Pelosi’s public statements have consistently backed Biden, emphasizing that running was his choice to make.
Yet her Mount Rushmore comment makes us wonder if Nancy Pelosi, at 84, is losing her marbles as well.
Perhaps she and Joe Biden can spend time together in a home for dementia patients talking about all the wonderful monuments to their time in DC they can build together.
