Pelosi defends not speaking to Trump for an entire year
The Hill ^ | 10 16 2020 | Cristina Marcos

Posted on 10/16/2020 4:59:23 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday defended not speaking to President Trump for the past year and maintained it's more productive to work with White House intermediaries like Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin instead.

When asked during an interview with MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace if she would be open to Trump reaching out to her, Pelosi said, "It would depend on what the purpose is."

Pelosi and Trump have not spoken since a meeting at the White House exactly a year ago, on Oct. 16, 2019, about pulling U.S. troops out of northern Syria that ultimately turned into the two trading insults and the Speaker walking out with her fellow Democrats.

After that meeting, Trump tweeted out a photo of Pelosi standing up and pointing a finger at him while the almost exclusively male group of lawmakers and administration officials remained seated. "Nervous Nancy's unhinged meltdown!" Trump wrote.

Pelosi said that she was telling Trump that "all roads with you lead to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin" in the moment captured by the photo.

"What was funny about it is the White House put out that photo, because we're not even allowed to wear a smartwatch in the room," Pelosi said while reflecting on it on Friday. "They put that out and I said, 'Thank you very much, Mr. President.' "

"But we left because there was no purpose to staying there. There was no truth coming from the other side," she said.

Maybe if President Trump is lucky Pelosi won’t speak to him for his entire 2nd term.

The last time was probably at one of those LIVE meeting where she made an a** of herself. I think she and Scummee walked out of one.

lol

Actually the heading is something I wouldn’t expect The Hill to use.

What she said doesn’t matter to me.

But anyone reading the headline is gonna think she’s incredibly unreasonable.

At least folks with a brain will think that.

We have too many without though :)

After Trump wins maybe he won’t have to speak to her at all.

Maybe he’ll give her a tear proof SOTU address, when he delivers it. I’d love see her tearing away at it to no avail and have Trump turn around and say “Gotcha”.

Did you hear PDJT complain? The less he hears your plant wilting voice, the better.

Nervous Nancy's Unhinged Meltdown!

Nancy said: "But we left because there was no purpose to staying there.

You should take that to heart and get the hell out of Washington Nancy, there's no purpose in you staying there.
