As a stalemate over coronavirus relief legislation persists, Speaker Pelosi and WH Chief of Staff Meadows will speak on Thursday for the first time in weeks, but both sides are downplaying any suggestion that the phone call will restart negotiations.

Pelosi has maintained her position that she will restart negotiations when the administration is willing to raise its price tag cap by $1 trillion to $2 trillion. The speaker said she’d drop her $3.4 trillion proposal to $2.4 trillion.“I think the Speaker is going to hold out until the end of September and try to get what she wants in the funding for the government during the CR or whatever funding mechanism happens to come up at the end of September,” Meadows said.

Pelosi, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin and Meadows had met nearly daily for two weeks before talks broke down amid a stalemate over the price tag. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is not involved in the stalled talks between Democrats and the White House, but he said in Kentucky on Wednesday that a deal is necessary, though he didn’t budge on a trillion dollar cost.

It's the first significant communication between the two since the coronavirus relief talks collapsed in early August. And she's not optimistic. Where are the SenateGOP in all of this?

Pelosi: 'I don't think there should be any debates' between Biden and TrumpHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi said 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. she is right and in a perfect world we could all just act like trump doesn't exist but we have to play the game and beat him. Biden can't handle it and his surrogates are arguing to protect him from the beating he would take live. That is because she knows Trump will use him to wipe the floor.

Pelosi says there shouldn't be any presidential debates this yearHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi says there shouldn’t be any presidential debates this year between Joe Biden and Donald Trump and that the president would debase the debate stage with poor behavior davidaxelrod what say you? I really dont think we need debates. What do we really need to learn that we dont already? The Democrats are eroding the integrity of the election system. Obama allowed investigations of two presidential candidates in 2016, partisan impeachment, USPS hoax, and now they don’t want to debate. They do more harm than China or Russia could. They know Joe just can’t do it. His numbers are dropping now. His health is declining, the virus numbers are dropping and he is losing his cover to hide inside, he hasn’t said 💩about the riots, and voters are running to join Republicans. Trump in a landslide!

Pelosi says Biden shouldn't debate Trump: 'I wouldn't legitimize a conversation with him'Pelosi also said that if Biden wins the White House and Democrats retain control of the House, they will have the ability to expose Trump’s tax returns. Just like she won’t debate her opponents in CA she knows she can’t lose so why bother. Democracy at its finest. And so it begins...they will do EVERYTHING in their power to keep sleepy Joe from a live debate with President Trump. Should Joe basementbiden Biden stay in the basement as well?
