Well.....”you gotta stick with the lie” I once heard. You gotta double-down it, triple-down it if you have to, but you can’t give up the lie. If you give it up, you admit you lied and were wrong.

She’s been doing a fine job and should stay there until her 100th birthday.

Keeping Pelosi as minority leader is actually good for us. As pickle face goes senile and has her face stretched taut as a drum head, she is the perfect example of dried up dysfunction.

Stalin held closed door meetings where he unanimously got consent of all in the meeting every time.
