BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — The audience at Clive Davis’ white-hot gala included Barbra Streisand, Joni Mitchell and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, but it was House Speaker Nancy Pelosi who got the most requests to take a selfie.

Pelosi received rock star treatment Saturday night from attendees at the annual pre-Grammy event, which also featured a stunning tribute to the late Aretha Franklin, an artist Davis worked closely with for decades.

Pelosi’s sarcastic handclap and smirk to President Donald Trump at his State of the Union address went viral last week and launched hundreds of memes.

So when Davis announced that she was in the audience — Pelosi has attended in the past — she received a standing ovation, while some people even imitated her now-famous handclap.

At the top of the event and as she tried to exit, people asked to take selfies, almost creating a line as Pelosi smiled through them all.

Since liberals believe smirks are racist, it must have been a racist smirk! Racist!

Pelosi is their poster child. She is the beginning of the communists takeover of America, and they are on their way.

“.... they know that the commie left wont touch their cash.”

Exactly. They would be exempt from the higher taxes of their tax brackets. The IRS would see to it. Selective enforcement would be in place.

Pelosi is 78 and Streisand is 76. It appears to me that both have had some work done.

Loved in California, loathed in the rest of the country. Sounds right. California used to lead the country, now they are a laughingstock.
