When Wolf Blitzer takes on the “great lady” during an extended interview that means that the top powers in the Dems have had it with Pelosi. She has failed. She did everything and still couldn’t get Trump impeached.
I’m not sure if this could be called “early” retirement, that might have been a few years back. The principle is not too bad an idea for the entire party and the voters have their chance in November to accomplish it.
