You fail to understand the nature of all the senior Representatives in both parties. They all love the action of the House. None of them want to be President. There are too many constraints in the White House to make that job desirable to any Representative who's spent decades in the House.

Nope. Nancy is more like John Boehner. She always wanted to be the Speaker of the House, and bless her, she got the job. Twice.
Now, after her current job demands are finished, she can retire at last at any time afterward in contentment. Just like Boehner did. That she can retire never means she will retire however. She will leave when she's good and ready, but not until then.

Even if she doesn't want it, there are plenty of people, perhaps millions, who like seeing her that way. That alone is enough of a laurel to keep anyone going.

She could have her husband lease or buy her a jet. He's got enough to swing that.

She does not drink.

Public speaking has never been her strength.

The primary role of the Speaker is to pass legislation supported by the majority.

The House is comprised of many factions within each party.

In contrast, the two prior Speakers, Boehner and Ryan resigned because they were unable to bring Republican factions, within their party, together.

Dream on. She loves mopping the floor with Trump. And she's so good at it.
Bingo! The IMPOTUS needs to resign or retire. But we must admit, he finally won a popular vote.

She accomplished what her party wanted, and now there is nothing more for her.

She was hesitant about impeaching the president at the beginning, and it was only once the socialist wing of the party took hold, she was "persuaded" to go along with their wishes.

I think she was aware that if she didn't, the socialist wing would see her removed form the speaker ship.
She got on board, all the while contemplating retirement after the impeachment vote.
She has been in politics for a long time, and I believe she is aware her usefulness is just about non-existent.
I also think she will not forward the articles to the senate, but will announce her retirement, and leave that to someone else.

Lord knows, she doesn't need the money, and I am sure she has consulted with family regarding retirement.
I believe I am right about this, and we will only have to wait nineteen days to find out if I am right.


Bob.
Don't quit your day job.

There is a socialist party but it's not in the United States of America.

It really has to be seen to be believed. It's like she's running on Windows 95.

Pelosi's husband is worth of hundreds of millions of dollars. She can easily afford to fly private.

She loves mopping the floor with herself, and making herself the most illiterate politician in American history.
