Fox News revealed that during this speech, Pelosi mentioned how once her grandson wished he was Hispanic with brown hair and brown eyes. Does she realize how racist this is?????

Now imagine if a Republican told a story where a Mexican or black kid wished he was white and this was presented as a good thing (and not as a result of microaggressions that marginalized their culture)????? Pelosi thinks its "beautiful" for a white kid to wish he was not white.......

Obviously her grandson has been indoctrinated into being a self-hating white by his grandmother. She probably preaches to him constantly about the poor, down trodden browns here in our country illegally and how we should pity them and give them everything they want.

The real point here is that this is presumably a complete fabrication. No child would have a birthday wish of that sort.
I suspect that this story is just as legit as when Trump claimed that a 9 year old named Pickle wrote a letter telling him what a great President he was and claiming that he had a Trump theme birthday cake.

Many on the left call Trump racist because he want's to stop illegal immigration on our southern border.

I guess on the bright side for Pelosi if you're going to be a brown Nazi supremacist at least you should be consistent and hold your own white offspring and relatives as inferior as well, right?

What's not legit? I have no reason to doubt Pelosi said it. If her grandson didn't actually say what she claimed, that doesn't make it any better.

Very true! While I wouldn't be surprised her grandson did say this, in any case her speech revealed she thinks its good when a white person wants to be not white.

IN real life when I heard a white person say he sometimes wished he was a minority was when blacks and Hispanics are getting special treatment and admitted to colleges with lower grades and hired with lower credentials due to affirmative action.

I dislike Nancy Pelosi probably far more that the average person, but that picture doesn't give an accurate representation.

Much of Nancy Pelosi's net worth comes from her husband's business interests...

They're desperate trying to protect their future voters because sane Americans with a brain won't vote for them
