Nancy Pelosi has long been a thorn in the side of not just conservatives, but the House itself.  For reasons no Republican could ever grasp, she is a heroine to the left, despite her many serious failures.  She is a traitor to her own district; she has never lifted a finger to deal with San Francisco's catastrophic homeless disaster.  She does not even admit that it exists!  She seems to think she is some kind of monarch, a queen bee.  In fact, she is a vicious elitist.  She and her husband, like Sen. Dianne Feinstein and her husband, are the ultimate inside traders who have become very rich over their years in public office.

One has to look no farther than Pelosi's daughter, Christine, to know how the family operates.  The younger Ms. Pelosi proudly asserted that Rand Paul's neighbor was right to attack him, and Paul lost part of his lung to that attack.  This was in response to the news that Paul had tested positive for COVID-19.  Unkind?  No, it's the Bourbon-like arrogance of the entrenched ruling elites.  The speaker, after all, is a relative of sorts with California's Gov. Gavin Newsom as well as the two other oligarchic ruling families of California besides House Newsom — the Jerry Brown clan and the Gordon Getty family.  She's benefited enormously from legislative favors around the tuna industry on the federal side.  Remember her tuna scandal?  Bottom line?  The Pelosi family are like the Gambino crime family.  They get their way, they get rich, they care about nothing else.  Nancy may pretend she cares about climate change, but she flies across the country weekly and charges the taxpayer not only for her private jet, but for her massive liquor bill.  She pretends to be a practicing Catholic but is rabidly pro-abortion.  In short, she's a nasty piece of work. 

She also has terrible judgment.  Who can forget her infamous quote?  "We have to pass Obamacare to find out what's in it."  Obamacare, as everyone now knows, was and remains a health care disaster.  The Trump administration has made inroads in relieving citizens of its worst consequences, but Pelosi still pretends it's viable and should be preserved.  Like most of her Democrat colleagues, she is committed to one thing, one thing only: the termination of the Trump administration.  The woman does not care one iota about any American citizen outside the supercilious realm she commands.  So when it seemed that Sen. Schumer was reaching a deal with the Republicans on a rescue bill for the millions suddenly out of work due to the shutdown of nearly all businesses, she rushed in to ruin the day.  She is a terminator, and there is not one Democrat in Congress who has the guts to stand up to her.  Every one of them cowers rather than invite her wrath.  She must have a little black book with the goods on each of them.  They are cowards all and probably crooks as well.  Surely, Adam Schiff fills that bill.

Prima donna Nancy decided all on her own that this was the moment to exploit the crisis of a pandemic.  She presented a 1,400-page bill packed will all manner of pork that, under the circumstances, was shocking in its abject cluelessness! This demented old woman decided that this was the time to demand funding for the Kennedy Center, PBS, Planned Parenthood, a bunch of Green New Deal nonsense, etc.  She is as mad as a hatter.  How on Earth is this woman re-elected over and over again when she is a demolition operative?  Word is that she swooped in on Monday and upended all the bipartisan negotiation that had taken place while she was on vacation and threw an IED on the process.  What a shrew!  If there was ever more proof needed to demonstrate her obscene callousness, this was it.  She actually thought the taxpayers would go for all her nonsense spending in this moment of crisis!  She is a certified idiot, as senile as Biden and as stupidly arrogant and as self-unaware as Hillary Clinton. 

Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana wryly commented that "this country was founded by geniuses but is being run by [hogtied by] idiots."  Indeed.  One has to question the Republicans as well for signing on to a spending bill that exceeds $2 trillion!  It's insane.  We are already trillions in debt.  The country should get back to work instead.  But as numerous people have observed, this is Impeachment 2.0!  The Dems tried to impeach the president over a phone call to the new leader of Ukraine; they called it a quid pro quo.  But Nancy Pelosi has perfected the quid pro quo and heightened the stakes; she thought she could hold up the Senate and get a deal on her terms, get billions of dollars of leftist nonsense passed under our noses. This is how dumb she thinks we the people are. She and the rest of the left have learned nothing over the past four years. Not one thing. Pelosi and her co-conspirators are the definition of insanity. Trump has confounded the left and rendered them senseless. 

It has yet to be proven if the shutting down of the nation's businesses was wise or yet another calculated attempt to dislodge Trump from the White House. Many more people die each years from numerous other causes, including seasonal flu, opioid overdoses, etc. Whatever the outcome, Trump has handled the crisis magnificently, despite his vicious naysayers on the left. If Hillary were in office, none of this would be happening just as none of this happened in 2009-10 with the H1N1 pandemic. And watching Biden trying to contribute to the conversation is just sad. The man is clearly not a viable presidential candidate. Time will tell what the DNC has in mind to mount an opposition candidate to Trump. Chances are it will not be Biden nor Sanders. And Pelosi? She needs to be voted out of office this year. She is a canker on our body politic.
