Ms Pelosi has warned the UK that there will be "absolutely no chance" of a trade deal with the US passing Congress should the Government override the Brexit withdrawal agreement signed by Prime Minister Boris Johnson. The Speaker of the House of Representatives said Brexit could not be allowed to “imperil” the Good Friday Agreement – brokered to establish peace in Northern Ireland after years of sectarian unrest.

In a little over 3 months it will be “Nancy who?”. So the Brits would be wise to ignore her and tell her to piss off.

What business is that of Pelosi’s? This is an appalling interference into another county’s affairs.

Setting up war rooms on the filibuster. Making foreign policy pronouncements. Having it all reported seriously by the in-house media.

They sure appear confident of winning it all.

Last I checked, the House has zero part in approving a treaty. The President signs a treaty and the Senate ratifies it.

What can the House do to interfere with the Senate job of ratifying Treaties?

Why in the H should the U.S. imperil a U.S.-U.K. trade deal, for the political views of queen Nancy? We should want a trade deal with the U.K. no matter what, and how the U.K. deals with the “Good Friday agreement” is THEIR business, not ours.

Maybe because Princess Nancy thinks she might become president. She is third in line after all, and there are scenarios in this election where it could actually happen.

We often mock celebrities when they enter areas they know nothing about. Politicians presume they have a get out of jail card.
Until they open their mouths.
