Nancy Pelosi: The Voters ‘Don’t Want to Hear Us Criticizing the President’
Breitbart ^ | September 2,2017 | by Penny Starr

Posted on 09/02/2017 2:35:51 PM PDT by Hojczyk

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said on Wednesday that American voters elected President Donald Trump and they don’t want to hear Democrats criticizing him, which “disrespects” their decision.

“(The voters) don’t want to hear us criticizing the president,” Pelosi said. “This was a choice; they made a decision.”

“And to criticize the president personally is to disrespect their judgment,” Pelosi said. “So I say to my members, ‘This is about what we’re going to do.’ ”

Pelosi, who was speaking to the editorial board and reporters at the Denver Post about the Democrat economic agenda before she attended a “progressive women’s event” in Denver, weighed in on a number of issues.

Pelosi said it’s too early to judge Trump on the response to tropical storm Harvey.

“We haven’t seen it. He’s been gracious, he went to Corpus Christi, which is sort of appropriate for him to do, because in the heart of the storm. It would be a challenge to accommodate a president,” Pelosi said, adding that she is worried about Trump’s proposed cuts to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in his fiscal year 2018 federal budget.

“You can’t do that,” Pelosi said, adding that the issue will be on the table when Congress reconvenes in just a few days.

After the violence perpetrated by Antifa activists in recent weeks, Pelosi finally issued a statement condemning them and told the Denver Post violent acts should be “prosecuted.”

“I think if there’s some people who are acting in a violent way, that they should be prosecuted,” Pelosi said. “I don’t care who they are, where they are, whatever organization they belong to.”

Also, he is learning on the job.
I mean in Art Of The Deal, he admits that the first foray or two into a new ‘line of business’ you’re going to make mistakes. That might be building a casino, or an ice rink or a TV studio, but he goes for it anyway, learns, adapts, hires, fires and eventually usually gets it done.

Charles Darwin said “It’s not the strongest of a species that survive. It’s not the smartest that survive. It is the individuals that adapt to the environment that survive.” Trump adapts. the fact that he’s not afraid to make a mistake and doesn’t wet his pants when he had to try something new seems to absolutely confound libs and others who are doctrinaire about things. If you get all your learning in an ivory tower, the guy who has to get something built on time and within budget who might not care about your biological purity test is hard to comprehend.

Oh, it’s lucid thinking...strategic even. Pelosi knows that at the current pace and intenisity, people will have long grown weary of the anti-Trump rhetoric by 2020. Nazi Pelosi is just warning her stormtroopers to keep their powder dry for when it really counts.

First she condemns Antifa and now she’s owning up to the fact that the American people don’t want to hear Democrats criticizing their President?

Man, her party must REALLY be hurting!!

McCain is in Italy (supposedly on his deathbed) dissing the President along with his boyfriend Lindsay.

Different? I guess they’ve never watched any of his rallies and saw how he connects with the AMERICAN people.

...Hey I’ll take it, as long as she encourages her conference to begin to negotiate in good faith...

That would take either aliens “Coming in peace” and landing on the White House Lawn or a comet hitting Earth.
This is about the loss of power, something they can’t handle.

Sounds like the monolithic Left has done some focus-group testing or polling.

This is another lesson from the 1990s. As much as we loathed Bill Clinton, there were a lot of moderates/ Independents who didn't like our constant negativity (even if it was deserved).

Most Americans don't like constant negativity.

We just passed the event horizon.

Nancy and her lefty friends can now be officially called “bananas”:

And their criticism of Antifa, poll driven obviously, probably too late.

I wanted them to double-down leading up to the 2018’s.

This is the worst news I have read all year.

She must have entered an advanced stage of dementia.

Yes, dementia can do strange things to a person. I like the new dementia version of Nancy better than the other one.
