'We've Upped the Ante.' Why Nancy Pelosi Is Going All in Against Trump (BARF ALERT)
time.com ^ | 1/9/20 | Molly Ball

Posted on 01/12/2020 3:52:38 AM PST by a little elbow grease

Nancy Pelosi isn’t wild about the question. The impeachment of President Donald Trump is under way, and I’ve asked the Speaker of the House if she thinks it’s the most important thing she’ll ever do. We’re sitting in her elegant office in the Capitol, on gold-upholstered armchairs around a low table topped with a vase of hydrangeas. Over her shoulder, the sweeping view of the National Mall is shrouded in wintry clouds. For a long moment, the Speaker goes silent as she seems to compile in her mind the list of accomplishments she’d rather claim as her legacy.

“Apart from declaring war, this is the most important thing that the Congress can do,” she finally says. “I’m most proud of the Affordable Care Act. But this is the most serious initiative that I’ve been involved in in my career.”

(snip) -- Pelosi has told colleagues she’s had to wear a night guard because the White House makes her grind her teeth in her sleep. But her frustration is born of determination, not unease. In our interview, I asked her if the President’s nickname for her, Nervous Nancy, is accurate. “Pfft,” she says, waving a hand. “He’s nervous. Everything he says, he’s always projecting. He knows the case that can be made against him. That’s why he’s falling apart.”

"Grinds her gums"?

For a long moment, the Speaker can't put two words together.

"just trying to get through the first sentence or two definitiely vomit worthy."

________________

Here is some more puke-worthy stuff.

"From start to finish, Pelosi has kept a tighter rein on the proceedings than the public realized, from major strategic decisions to minor stagecraft. It was Pelosi who decreed that the Intelligence Committee would take the lead in the inquiry, even though impeachment is generally considered to be the Judiciary Committee’s purview. (Past Judiciary hearings had devolved into a circus–particularly a Sept. 17 session in which the President’s former campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, openly mocked the proceedings.) It was Pelosi who decided that the Democrats’ hashtag for impeachment, #TruthExposed, seemed too harsh; they settled on #DefendOurDemocracy instead."

-- Ain't she a smart cookie?

“I’m most proud of the Affordable Care Act.”

Sold to the public on a bunch of LIES.
Sold to Congress with a bunch of bribes to Democrats.

No its her brain or what’s left that’s not connected and she’s trying to find a connection, much like biden experiences

...... and she HATES Americans.

.......... it seems so long ago that Nancy Peloosie argued that the President's actions with Ukraine constituted "bribery".

She is such a bloviating slug. Nothing like the daughter of a crime boss. It's all she knows.

Is this an interview of the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives or a promotion for a Hallmark TV show?

What case is she talking about? Every alleged criminal act was DROPPED from their sham impeachment charges.

They want to impeach him because they don't like him and oh yeah, "orange man bad."

Pure Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Next week, Molly Ball publishes the Haiku version.

Over her shoulder,
the sweeping view of the
National Mall is
shrouded in wintry clouds.
