Do Democrats have contempt for Americans who aren’t part of the richest 1% or don’t live in cities on the coast?
This query comes after former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) made an outrageous comment during a recent Oxford Union debate, calling those who may see themselves as part of the populist movement just “poor souls who are looking for some answers.”
“We’ve given [answers] to them, but they’re blocked by some of their views on guns. They have the three Gs: guns, gays, God,” huffed the the 84-year-old Pelosi. “That would be a woman’s right to choose — and the cultural issues cloud some of their reception of an argument that really is in their interest.”
How utterly condescending, albeit not surprising considering the elitist bubble Pelosi — who along with her husband is worth north of $100 million — lives in.
She’s clearly saying, in other words, that if these “poor souls” weren’t so brainwashed and would listen to the way Democrats would like them to think, they would see that the Democratic Party and its agenda is a perfect fit for them.
They’re just too dumb or delusional to realize it.
The sanctimonious sentiment brings back memories of Barack Obama’s perspective on struggling working-class voters during a private fundraiser in San Francisco back in 2008.
“They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations,” Obama said in comments he didn’t know were being recorded.

Nancy, it’s mutual.
It was only a couple years ago where the leader of her political party referred to 90 million Americans as, “Deplorables”.

Says the woman who ripped up President Trump’s State of the Union address.
She was attractive for a long time.
She looks like CRAP now.
Who cares what she is saying as she is waving her arms around in continuous motion...a sign of a moron.
MAGA is NOT based on marxist class envy crap. When we talk about 'the corrupt elite' it can be a leftwing commie professor - with or without money. And as for Nancy? She has contempt for people outside her political bubble. For her, it's not money either. She hates Trump as much as she hates us. Rich or poor she hates us for our ideas, sense of fair play, and our standards of right and wrong.
