Pelosi Spectacularly Unravels on CNN After Being Asked WHY She's Holding up $1.8T COVID Relief Bill
Daily Mail UK ^ | 10/13/2020 | Francis Mulraney

Nancy Pelosi slammed CNN'S Wolf Blitzer as a 'Republican apologist' in a fiery meltdown on Tuesday evening. 'I don't know why you're always an apologist — and many of your colleagues, apologists for the Republican position,' Pelosi responded as Blitzer mentioned Khanna's comments on the bill. 'Ro Khanna, that's nice. That isn't what we're going to do. And nobody's waiting until February.' She said she could not accept the Republican deal as it is, because child tax credits and earned income credits were 'eliminated'. 'They minimize the need for childcare, which is the threshold with which people, mothers and fathers, can go to work if they have that,' she added. 'I want this very much now, because people need help now, but it's no use giving them a false thing just because the president wants to put a check with his name on it in the mail.'

'We know the problem out there,' Blitzer interrupted, 'but there are millions of Americans who have lost their jobs. They can't pay the rent. Kids need the food—'

'That's right, and that's what we're trying to get done,' Pelosi fired back. The fireworks began early in the interview as Blitzer off the bat asked Pelosi why she wouldn't accept the Republican party offer.

He asked her to look Americans 'in the eye... and explain why you don't want to accept the president's latest stimulus offer'.

'I hope you'll ask the same question of the Republicans on why they don't want to meet the needs of the American people,' Pelosi responded.

Blitzer is seeing internal polling of the campaigns and panicking....
_______
Joe is losing. Ds are losing. Nancy is a loser.

Blitzer and his bosses intend to survive.

“Unravels”.... chuckle... She was downright pissed off that Wolfie dared to ask a REAL question her.

She was expecting the standard democrat penetrating question “What is your favorite color?”...

Blitzer should have a bottle of alcohol just out of reach to rattle her more.

...millionaire politicians who are in their 70’s...

Trump broke their rice bowls and then he took all the rice.

What amazes me is that all these millionaire politicians who are in their 70’s absolutely REFUSE to just retire on those millions and ENJOY their last few years.

Retirement means facing with terror the reality that they're nobodies. Their narcissism cannot handle the truth.

Didn’t they learn anything in “Symbolic Logic 101” and “102,” “Aristotelian Logic 201” and “202?”

Nancy is not used to getting pressed, especially on CNN which she normally considers safe ground.

Wolf Blitzer could be an apologist for the Republican Party only in an alternate universe. Maybe Nancy lives there and accidentally crossed over into our own world. That would explain a lot.

I remember, a zillion years ago, (probably around the Gulf War-91 92ish) when Rush had Wolf Blitzer sub for him on his show.

Rush had Chrissy Matthews sub for him as well.
Not sure Rush was in charge of making that decision back then.

Be aware that the videos on CNN and on CNN’s youtube channel has now been clipped and shortened from the original to remove the last segment about the poor begging for food and Nancy’s response

Here is the section that was removed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-7_3mwGYAc

It shows just exactly how she wants us, fully dependent on her blessings to feed and clothe us.

Even when Blitzer grows a set to question her, they still manage to protect her from full blow back.

'You know what, do you have any idea what the difference is between the spending that they have in their bill and what we have in our bill?' an increasingly frustrated Pelosi said.

All the graft and kickbacks?
