Democrats, please do not distance yourselves from Nancy Pelosi. She is a wonderful person whose ideas & policies may be bad, but who should definitely be given a 4th chance. She is trying very hard & has every right to take down the Democrat Party if she has veered too far left! https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1028030912095838208?ref_src=twsrc^tfw I agree with DJT45 that Democrats should not distance themselves from Nancy Pelosi. Nancy is a wealthy, establishment politician. Who better than her fresh face as the symbol of the Democrat Party?
Wow, she is so evil because is a wealthy establishment politician. Isn't that like half of Congress? Mitch McConnell anyone?
Pelosi is hyper partisan to a fault. And while people criticize the things Trump says, Pelosi is a hundred times worse but gets away with it and has done so for years.
Forget about right vs left, get on board with right vs. wrong. Plenty of corrupt conservatives to go around. Flush them all.
I don't like politicians who won't work across the isle and will only do things for political wins and to please their base rather than doing unpopular things they know are right.
The Republicans are hyper partisan too. Remember that Mitch actually kept Obama from nominating a Supreme Court justice. The Republicans dragged out the Benghazi investigation for years with virtually no results to show.
While I feel it's probable that somebody in the same position for 12+ years might be a little burned out and stale, I think hell would freeze over before I let Trumpy the clown, ANY Republican, or most Democrats tell me who should be the House D leader (were I a D Congressperson).... O'Connor fumbled his answer, but any NEW representative should probably pass on who they would vote for for house leadership, as they really don't know.... Follow the lead of re-elected House Dems.. They are the primary group who should have input on this. If they feel she's still the best person to lead them, so be it... If not, I'm fine with that too... Stuff it, fatty!!
Well, Congress members are supposed to do what their voters want. I’m uncertain if that is what you mean by “base”. I generally earn $150-$175K per year and I am nowhere nearly as wealthy as some of these scum congress people. I’m only worth a fuzz over a million after 30 years of trying. These people have stupid money while not earning a whole lot more than I do.
The problem is that people are in general stupid and that is the whole reason our founders set up a representative government rather than a democracy. Politicians generally play politics because their base want it. When the GOP stalled Obama's supreme court nomination, the GOP base agreed. When the democrats are stalling Trump's current nominee, the democratic base agree. We often blame partisanship on politicians without realizing that their base is a lot more ok with it than we like to admit.
I see your point. My problem is people play politics about the same way as people cheer for one side of the Super Bowl, not a whole lot of thought behind it. I want America strong, proud, and prosperous for her people, Irrespective of whom sits in the White House.
