Note to Nancy Pelosi: do not fight Donald Trump on his terms. You will not win.
Nancy Pelosi has been openly feuding with Donald Trump since October, when she blew up at him in a public meeting. She failed to understand that she was playing right into his strength. Had she not perused his twitter feed? Did she think she could match Donald blow for blow?
Losing your poise is the last thing a politician should want to do. And it wasn’t a simple one-off; Pelosi got in touch with her inner witch and decided she was going to take Trump down no matter what. Previously she had been a voice of moderation and had opposed the young, radical Dem “Squad”. She had insisted impeachment would have to be bipartisan to be legitimate and not divide the nation. But now she switched sides precipitously, gave in to radical Dem demands, and signed onto a doomed impeachment attempt.
It was not going to go well; it could not go well, especially in the wake of the utterly bankrupt Mueller Report blowing up in the Dem’s faces. You make bad judgments when you allow your emotions to get the best of you.
Going into the House chamber last night, Trump ignored Pelosi’s politely outstretched hand. That was the final straw for this poor woman. All during the speech she could be seen making sulllen faces, looking at printed copy in an effort to distract herself, and even speaking loud enough for the president to hear her.
Trump delivered a powerful SOTU speech, one of the best I’ve heard, but it must be admitted he did not soft-pedal some of his more divisive points. All this was too much for Nan. And she responded exactly how Trump would have wanted, with a huge national audience watching, by spitefully tearing up her copy of the speech.
Trump has divided our politics, and thank God for it. Playing the “Dem-Lite” “me-too” game for decades had destroyed the Republican Party, and the nation was sliding into perdition. This is why the Dems hate Trump – because he has forced them to reveal who they really are. He has ripped off their mask for all to see.
And now Nancy Pelosi has added her amen to what Trump has revealed. She has given Americans a clear choice: side with Trump and his amazing achievements and positive vision, or side with the Dems, where identity politics and irrational personal vendettas trump the nation’s welfare.
The blacks were watching, the latinos were watching, the independents were watching. The Democrat Party is imploding before our eyes, and last night will be the enduring emblem of Nancy Pelosi’s horrible legacy.
