Pelosi’s meeting antics were a disservice to women

The image Nancy Pelosi added to her Twitter profile last week shows her as the plucky woman at a table full of gray men, standing up and wagging her finger at Donald Trump like a scolding schoolmarm, just before stalking out of the meeting.

She must imagine it portrays her in a good light. It doesn’t, no matter how many progressive women share it triumphantly on social media as a symbol of female empowerment. It’s more a symbol of female entitlement.

It’s an embarrassment to women who want to be judged on their merits, not given special treatment by men through melodrama and flouncing hysterics.

But the scene is bad for the president, too.

The photograph was taken in the Cabinet Room by a White House photographer Wednesday, during a meeting with Democratic lawmakers on a serious topic which has been lost in all the fangirl, “boss move” eulogizing in the media about Pelosi.

If she wasn’t so old men would be saying that was why women should never be in a position of power, they are too emotional.

I’m almost 60 years old. In my lifetime, I have never seen anyone that would dare treat the POTUS this way, regardless of whether it was Jimmy the crap Carter, Barack I-Hate-America Obama or anyone else. Even Reagan wasn’t treated to this abuse by the left. Is her alcohol laden mind that far gone?
