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.

Kabuki for the rubes that watch CNNLOL and MSDNC and believe every word. Gotta keep the base excited, or they will drift away.
I generally don’t wish harm on others, not even Satan’s minions like Nazi P - but if there were one person that the Lord let me induce a heart attack in....
Heart attack in Three, Two, One!! I WISH and WANT.
This woman is dangerous as long as she is in politics. She makes Charles Manson sound sane and that takes some doing but Mafia Girl is up to it.
Wouldn't the Bible start smoking if she touched it?
Fake rage. Pelosi has known all along how this would end up.
Now, what that says about her is another story...
There was a pitcher full of water near the dias. There always is. One accidental spill, and she would have melted.
I am surprised she was so upset. Does that mean she is certain there won’t be any late mail-in votes that will determine the vote in favour of conviction? Strange...
“I say that regretfully because I always want to be able to work with the leadership of the other party,’ the California Democrat added.”
Which is why I couldn’t even utter a pro forma condemnation on the deadly attack on the Republican baseball team that nearly killed Steve Scalise.
Nancy is from Myanmar?
Guess she didn’t like that time during the government shutdown when Trump cancelled her plane.
in her personal fight (twice) against President Trump!"
She sees her Speakership being defeated in 2022.
Why did she look around while mentioning her grandchildren, were they at the press conference with you, Nancy?
What an evil lunatic.
Nanzi’s got antzis in her pantzis.
FU witch!
True... but if you want to find 1 Thing Trump did for us... He saved us from hillary!!!!! OOOOH! To have been a fly on the wall when that skank realized her lifelong dream was destroyed. I would’ve loved to see that!
I know one worse than both. I almost married her.
Yes, Pelosi’s rage against Trump is highly personal for her. It’s been a very public display from day one and even prior. In May of 2016 Pelosi said:.... “I guarantee it,” Trump won’t be president “Take it to the bank.”, “Trump will never be President.”............and of course he was.
Though Pelosi has a stronghold on the House and much of the Senate Demorats she had zero hold on Trump and still doesn’t. She could not get him to yield to her.
