Pelosi says she must remain as leader so a woman is at table
WASHINGTON (AP) — House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said Friday she must retain her leadership position in Congress so there is a woman at the table when key decisions are made.
After more than a decade leading House Democrats, Pelosi has faced demands from some lawmakers for leadership changes, particularly after Democrats failed to win back House control last year. A fellow Californian and member of Pelosi’s leadership team, Rep. Linda Sanchez, said earlier this month that it was time for Pelosi and other veteran leaders to step aside and make way for a new generation of party leaders.
Pelosi said in an interview on ABC’s “The View” that she was ready to leave had Hillary Clinton become president, putting a woman at the top. But Clinton lost, and so she must remain, Pelosi said, as she recounted a White House dinner last month where she was the only woman at the table.
“And that’s why I have to stay there, to be one of the top women, top people at the table,” said Pelosi, 77, adding that she views one of her mandates as protecting former President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act, which she was instrumental in passing as House speaker at the time.
“I was ready to go if Hillary won, have a woman at the top of the table, protecting the Affordable Care Act, which is to me similar to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid,” Pelosi said.

There are millions of women who would make a better leader than she does
Yeh....we want to make sure those babies get murdered.
Every liberal pronouncement...every last one...needs to carry the caption: Semi-serious news.
So she’s saying a woman can’t have a penis?
I thought we’re not allowed to say that anymore.
Desperado, why don’t you come to your senses,
You been out ridin’ fences for so long now!
SEXIST !!!
I’d like to do away with the “semi-satire” postings here.
Real life events are too freaky and insane these days to waste time posting or reading literally “fake news” at FR.
“Pelosi says she must remain as leader so a woman is at table”
Anything we can do to help her keep her position?
A women? That’s what she is?
But never at the HEAD of the table.
She’s worse than the mumbling uncle at a Thanksgiving table.
Exactly!
The dems are so consumed with Identity Politics that can not see the reality of the constitution any longer.
What a sexist loser. By the way...make me a sammich!
My mother was always at the table.
After she served my father :)
Is Pelosi some sort of RACIST?!
ML/NJ
I don't exactly disagree. My problem these days is all real liberals are working full time to unravel western civilization. They are crushing folkways, mores and institutions in order to cater to 1/100 of 1% of the mentally ill people in this world.
They are working overtime to create vacuums to be filled with what?
They make pronouncements that the press approvingly report.
They ruin anyone that can't see their world.
A senile old bag like Pelosi says she must be included because she is a woman. She should be escorted to the car with encouraging words, "Yes, Nancy. Absolutely, Nancy. Anything you say, Nancy." She should be driven to a three story house and tucked away on a rocker in an upper bedroom to end her life with as much dignity as can be supplied to the lobotomized.
Even though everyone, even the liberals know this, she will still be granted a forum as though she is able to complete an entire thought.
Until main stream news people are willing to say in public, "Nancy, that is tied for the stupidist thing you have said to date and the stupidest thing anyone has heard since your last pronouncement," the only reasonable alternative is to say it's semi-serious.
“Pelosi says she must remain as leader so a woman is at table”
right. because there are no other possible female Dem leaders ...
Nancy Pelosi: the gift that keeps on giving ...
For a long time, I have been convinced that the ONLY reason that Pelousi hasn’t been booted is because she is a woman. She would literally destroy anyone who tried to remove her. BTW, did her vineyards get hit in the fires?? Just curious.
Or maybe one of the men would be willing to get a sex-change operation.
More good news and more winning for Trump and America!
Stay there, Nancy and keep your demented mind and motor mouth going!
