Nancy Pelosi: I’m not going anywhere as long as Trump is here

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says she has no plans to step aside as long as President Trump is in the White House.

“As long as [Trump is] here, I’m here. I feel very comfortable that the support I have in the caucus and that I will be the speaker of the House," she told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in an interview set to air Monday. "If Hillary Clinton had won, and the Affordable Care Act was protected — I feel very proprietary about that — I was happy to go my way,"

Pelosi admitted that “it's time for new blood” in her party, but said it’s risky not to have a woman at the negotiating table. Ultimately, it’s “up to the caucus” to decide party leadership, she said.

Pelosi has faced calls from within her own party to step aside to allow younger members to take the helm. Some Democrats have distanced themselves from her amid attacks from Republicans, especially Trump, who has labeled her the face of the Democratic...

Thank you Nancy. You and Maxine Waters are great spokespeople for the Democratic Party. It’s a real winner. You two should run for president.

‘Pelosi admitted that “it’s time for new blood” in her party...’

But not her! Rules for thee, but not for me...

Yeah, quintessential liberal.

A huge champion of the poor, Nancy Pelosi’s $22 million Napa home boasts tennis courts and a Bocci ball court. She is lucky enough to also have a helicopter landing pad.

Being poor is GREAT! Just not for Nancy...

A political creation of unions, she employs ZERO union people at her vineyard and at her luxurious bed & breakfast, Auberge de Soleil, where a buger and fries will set you back $22 before tax and tip. The overnight to stay here runs $1,325. Oh, and that's for the BARGAIN room, by the way.

The same is true of the 16-branch, upscale restaurant chain Pelosi partners in, Piatti, located in 5 states in the USA, shown below. Of the nearly 1,000 employees working there, ZERO are members of a union.

Employing union people is FANTASTIC..!!! Just not for Nancy.

Must be nice, huh?

Let’s take a look at a different branch of Piatti, the photo below shows their branch nestled in La Jolla:

Pelosi also played a critical role in exempting American Samoa, where 80% of the island works for Starkist Tuna, from a mandatory minimum wage hike, from $5.35 per hour. Advocate For The Poor Pelosi is a major Starkist shareholder, you see.

Bad working conditions, and $5.35 each hour. Sorry Charlie..!

In a single year the bar tab for Pelosi’s huge government plane exceeded $100,000 —one time she diverted it over 1,000 miles in order to pick up a single order of chocolate-dipped strawberries.

In Feb 2018 Chris Matthews claimed the GOP's strategy to maintain its congressional majority was to relentlessly attack Nancy "because she is an ethnic sort of person".

Behold the highly ethnic, hard-scrabble Pelosi clan below, decked out in gangsta finery in South Central Napa Valley:

Hysteria of the mentally ill left. What can you do with stupidity? Sell it? Soros pays for it.

Oh my. I don’t think Nan understands how the Trump curse works.

Did she inform her BRAIN? Because dementia doesn’t get better with time and we have 5 more years of Trump.

We want you just where you are Nance, as minority leader. And keep making all those bizarre and incoherent statements at appropriate, or inappropriate times.

I read something that was meant as something to make one think a bit.

If President Trump resigned due to whatever pressures near the end of his second term then let’s say Pence would be sworn in. If Pence then appointed Trump to be his VP then resigned after winning the next election then Trump would be sworn in as President for a 3rd term. If he won again at the next Prez election cycle he could literally be Prez for almost 4 terms.

I’m sure there’s a rule or two somewhere to prevent it but it does make one think. It would never happen anyway but still... can you imagine anything that would make the leftists heads explode faster? Cities like Seattle and San Fran would be filled with all the pink mist from exploding leftist heads.

Is she bragging or complaining?

The Clintonistas toyed with this idea of trying to circumvent the 22nd Amendment. I don’t want to adopt their ways of cheating. And too, President Trump will be getting pretty long in the tooth by the end of his second term—come to think of it, so will I. I’m a dozen days older than the President.

Yeah; not really doable for a host of good reasons like that. :)

Just fun to think about all that pink mist...
