She didn't flip the bird at them. Figuratively or otherwise. At President Trump.....

why on earth do you find it demeaning when your posts are quoted?
The thrust of your post, "Doctor", is to demean or ridicule, or generally discredit my posts.

The argument that Pelosi was disrespecting the honorees (as opposed to just Trump) would be bolstered by a video of her ripping up the speech at the moment the honorees were getting recognized. Thank you for making my point for me.

Yet when asked for an explanation as to why she tore up the speech her answer was that there wasn't a shred of truth in it.

Face it, she screwed up. Now the other side will use that screw up to their advantage, just as the Dems do when a Republican is guilty of bad optics.

Quite frankly, I have a hard time believing Pelosi has respect for anyone. She definitely doesn't have respect for her position as Speaker, nor for American voters.

if you find seeing your own posts 'demeaning' or 'ridiculing', maybe you should reconsider the content of those posts.

i will be honest. I'm still not over the vicious lies told about George W. Bush so seeing a democrat upset about a democrat being done wrong.... in their opinion... doesn't exactly move the needle on my compassion radar.

seeing your own posts quoted back at you has upset you to the point that you're repeatedly calling me 'doctor.' so you clearly do find it demeaning. you're the one who said so in the first place.
