The senior person on the Left that understands the machinations and the twists and turns of the rules. She has serves and continues to serve the Dems well.

There is a reason Trump continually demonizes her. We should not be forwarding that RW talking point.

Politico, March 2017:

“If Hillary had won, I was ready to go home,” Pelosi told reporters Friday, saying she now is motivated to stay to protect Obamacare. “If she were there, then I would not worry about that.”

The reason the Government Of Putin spews so much vitriol at Hillary, Pelosi, and DiFi is because they're terrified. These women are competent with the levers of government and that is antithetical to Republicanism.

actually be able to recognize with a little help, very resentful of women they can't put in their place, generating tremendous hostility and malice. Same for some women, probably social conservatives.

I used to run into this occasionally as an appraiser. That was too much authority for some men to accept without trying to destroy it. Lol. One, after picking away at my report and unable to satisfy himself by undermining my analysis, which was solid, finally resorted to calling the short industry phrases I filled the blanks in the form with "pompous." Interrupted a couple of times to yell very rudely at his office staff. God, haven't remembered that schmuck in years.

These women are heroes and still effective. They don't need to step aside until they're ready or voted out.

This attitude towards women seems be absent with the men and it pisses me off to no end.
