Pelosi to Democrats: Treat Trump voters like a friend whose boyfriend is a jerk
CNN Politics ^ | February 28, 2017 | Dana Bash

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi is telling her rank-and-file members that she is confident a good portion of President Donald Trump's voters will eventually turn on him -- and Democrats just have to wait it out.

She's using a colorful analogy to make her point -- comparing Trump to a friend's boyfriend who is a "jerk."

"The way I told my members: It's like telling your friend the guy she's dating is a jerk. You can't tell her that. She has to find out for herself. You can give her clues and then eventually one thing will lead to another, she'll come to her conclusion. But if you tell her right up front, you'll lose a friend. So we're not interested in losing any friends. Let them find out," Pelosi recounted during a small briefing for reporters in her Capitol suite Tuesday.

"They made a judgment and they're not willing to walk away from their own judgment," she said.

Pelosi did, however, make a sweeping judgment about educated women who voted for Trump rather than Hillary Clinton.

"White educated women who voted against Hillary? They voted with their husbands on taxes and they always have," declared Pelosi....

She’s a real example of a brilliant leader on par with any of the original Founders, don’t you think? America is so fortunate to have her! /S

What an idjit! In this case she’s the jerk boyfriend; not Trump. What a maroon!

What a patronizing, slimy idiot. I’m one of those “white, educated women”...married...but probably more conservative than my husband. Pelosi is a disgrace to women.

Is this "bargaining" ?

Or "acceptance" ?

To late for that tactic to work. You should have tried that first instead of the 3 month long crazy people tantrum.

I made the right “judgement” about Pelosi decades ago.

It was just about this time last year that she was saying it was a certainty that the Democrats would take back the House in 2016.

She was also saying "Donald Trump is not going to be President of the United States, take it to the bank, I guarantee it."

Such brilliance from this genius. The strategy sessions she has with Schmuckie Schumer must be equally brilliant.

Did you see the faces of the Rats during his speach? They should complete disdain for Trump and the American people.

This rabid brain dead RAT does not deserve the time of day. She has outlived her usefulness— even the
RATS know it. Hey screwball Nancy, how many more face lifts can you live through?

Nasty Peloser strikes again!

From your article I clicked on one of the links to another story. It showed the reactions of various members of congress during Trump’s speech. It was pretty funny. You can definitely see Nasty’s plastic face mouthing, “Boooooo” as she shakes her Botoxed bobble head back and forth.

Pathetic.

By the way — watching her tonight, I have come up with a new career for her. She should be a model for a casket company.

Interesting that she wore her white KKK robe tonight like a lot of other dimoKKKRAT women. At least she did not wear her KKK hat in the room.

Dearest SanFranNan,

They make wonderful drugs these days
for those times when you need the voices to stop.
I mean really, really stop.
