An animated and furious Nancy Pelosi crashed House impeachment managers' post-trial press conference in a rage She lashed out at Mitch McConnell and called Republicans 'cowardly' for voting to stop Donald Trump from being convicted for 'incitement of insurrection'

'It had not been my intention to come to this press availability,' Pelosi said 'But what we saw today was a cowardly group of Republicans who apparently have no options because they were afraid to... respect [Congress]' McConnell argued in floor remarks after voting to acquit Trump Saturday, that Congress didn't have the jurisdiction to go after a former president Nancy Pelosi crashed the House impeachment manager's post-trial press conference Saturday to rage against Mitch McConnell and call out Republicans' 'cowardly' vote to stop Donald Trump from being convicted for 'incitement of insurrection'.

'It had not been my intention to come to this press availability,' Pelosi said as she spoke to reporters on the fifth and final day of the Senate proceedings. 'But what we saw today was a cowardly group of Republicans who apparently have no options because they were afraid to defend their job – respect the institution in which they serve.'
'But why I came over was because I listened to Mitch McConnell,' Pelosi continued. McConnell took the Senate floor shortly after Democrats failed to earn the two-thirds votes needed to convict the former president – and the Republican leader argued Congress no longer had jurisdiction over Trump's actions because is no longer president.
>snip> 'I don't know if it was for donors, or what, or whatever it was, it was a very disingenuous speech and I say that regretfully because I always want to be able to work with the leadership of the other party,' the California Democrat added.

Trump won ‘the fight’ with Pelosi a good while ago. In all seriousness, it appears in 4 years, he has driven her insane.

She is powerful.

You say that her dems in House are just too stupid.

But the republicans have not been able to fight her effectively and get rid of her.

They stupid too??

That insane bitch needs to be taken for a helicopter ride. At altitude, she should be thrown out. Sans parachute.

And that dishonest, dirty, evidence tampering bunch behind her need to be rebuked by the ABA.

All those children in the House are scared to death of her. She leads them around by their nose rings every minute of every day.

To note a finer point. Eric Swalwell twiddles his thumbs too while Nancy is speaking and stands to the left of her.

Personally, I don’t care if someone is erratic or odd anymore. We have seen what politicians who are polished and speak all the right words do: They destroy and degrade us.

I’ll take someone who is odd, has my values, and gets things done. Like Trump. I want someone who understands the job of an executive, not the job of a politician.

Yeah, I know what you mean about those “anonymous sources”. Compared to Trump, what has that depicable hag ever done to improve this country one whit?

They sure are big on those “unnamed sources”...

Will you guys please stop fighting?

My first respect goes out to you grunts on the ground who have experienced so much loss of life and limb in our useless nation building.

However, you grunts should realize that in this age of sophisticated weaponry around the world, ships are floating coffins if hit in the wrong place. From the smallest Frigate to the largest Carrier, hundreds to thousands could go down. Yes, Navy has less direct combat risk, but at risk for higher casualties with just one missle or torpedo.

Hey guys, we're on the same team.

I feel the same way. Trump made his own millions first outside of DC and can concentrate on serving The People. He’s about the only publicly-elected figure I know who obviously tries. The rest feather their own nests first on the taxpayers’ dimes, take their base for granted, and if anything good happens for The People it’s almost by happenstance.

Those asshats ARE the ABA in case you didn’t notice.

I think that they qualify for being rendition-ed to an undisclosed location for some enhanced interrogation techniques, followed by a military tribunal.

They call them the "stupid party" for a reason.

I read she was heard yelling in a hallway after she finally left the room.“

Sounds like she actually expected the GOP to commit suicide and convict. They may be hapless and weak but they are not that dumb.

I could see Trump running for the House if he was sure he would be Speaker but l don’t think that would happen. To many rinos.

She lost it a long time ago.

She’s never been very intelligent or educated - just politically canny and conniving.

Mitch, you sold yourself, and us, out again. Once again you kissed their asses, and what did it get you Mitch? Are they loving you this time?

Ding ding ding! You figured out the deepest motive most of these front and backstabbers can't see in their-selves (over fear and greed): jealousy of Trump's following and desire for that sort of love from THEIR constituents.

Watching McConnell tossing Trump under the bus made me visualize the gummy candy commercials featuring toddler-talking adults at a board meeting.

"Mobs with his signs and his flags all over...we're not intimidated (on and on)" might as well have been "Orange Man poopy head got more toys and no one wants to play with me!"
