Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) said in an interview with the New York Times that the Constitution considers her to be President Donald Trump's equal.

Pelosi is set to regain the speaker's gavel after spending eight years as House minority leader. Pelosi was the first female speaker of the House from 2007 to 2011, and she maneuvered to get the party's votes necessary to secure the speakership again after Democrats won back the chamber in the November midterms.

In a piece with a headline declaring her an "icon of female power," Pelosi was asked by the reporter "if she considers herself Mr. Trump's equal."

"The Constitution does," she replied.

LOL um, no, it does not. No more than Paul Ryan was equal in power to Obama.

15 Democrats defected ... 10 were incoming members. 12 backed other Democrats and 3 voted "present.

New order of presidential succession:

1) Pence (Vice President)

2) Pelosi (House Speaker)

3) Grassley (Senate president pro tempore)

4) Pompeo (Secretary of State)

5) Mnuchin (Treasury Secretary)

The Speaker does not control the budgetary process that is occurring as of now. The US has not had an official budget since 2010 or so. Every expenditure is done through a committee made up of Senators and HOR. The current process is why Ryan was deemed "ineffective" because of this committee. The Repubs simply did not have enough votes for to offer an official budget.

I would love an official budget, along with administrative law being eradicated, however, this is where we are. The budget has been relegated to being a political hot potato which is awful governance.

She already is Queen of the Senile Elderly Lunatics. ALL BOW TO THE QUEEN!!!

By this idiots logic, so does The Secretary of Education DeVos if the SHTF. If,God forbid, POTUS Trump and VPOTUS Pence were removed, Nancy should be worrying about other things other than her delusional fantasies and narcissism.

[hal ogen]

No...I think it has something to do with IQ or corn-holes.
