House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Aug. 27 sought to clarify her comments after earlier stating that she does not believe Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden should hold any debates with President Donald Trump ahead of the November election.

“Well, I have every confidence in Joe Biden. As I’ve said, he knows why. He knows why he is running for president. He has a vision for America that is very inclusive,” Pelosi said on MSNBC’s “The Beat with Ari Melber.”
