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.

Why would she talk to him? She’s the most important leader
in the nation. Just ask her.

Another reason for no women in politics.

She thinks shes queen, in charge of everything, and can treat all men around her like a beta husband. And thinks gi ing the cold shoulder and issuing ultimatums is the proper way to do government.

She and her ilk have set back their little movement. I’m ok with this.

It would be nice if she didn’t have any authority to speak to him.

Recall how that dope rino gave her a huge gavel when the house turned. He should have been shot for kissing her ass in such a fashion.

It is considered disrespectful for a President to speak to a cadaver.
Especially a repulsive, diseased, worm-ridden, picture of putrescence.
