Pelosi seemed confused and unsure how to react to the heckler. She turned to the state rep. with her, Rep. Mark DeSaulnier (D-CA), and gave him the podium. DeSaulnier joked “I hope he’s not one of my constituents.”
The “let’s go Brandon” chant gained popularity in October when an NBC Sports reporter was interviewing NASCAR driver Brandon Brown following his first race win. Fans were loudly chanting “F**k Joe Biden” during the interview but the reporter acted as if the fans were chanting, “let’s go Brandon”.
Pelosi held the press conference alongside Mayor London Breed and Rep. DeSaulnier. Pelosi and company encouraged Democrats that the Build Back Better plan is not dead, regardless of Sen. Joe Manchin’s (D-WV) vote.
In a statement, Pelosi said she is “hopeful that we will soon reach an agreement so that this vital legislation can pass as soon as possible next year.”
