Pelosi attack Bush 43 at every point that she could and the stunt she did to Trump was beyond disrespectful. So now, she is getting so of that “chet” throw back at her and it’s wrong?! Or is the OP saying that women are the weaker sex and can’t handle the heat in a man’s world?

I’m not a fan of Pelosi at all especially after using insider information to make millions for her family, but without question, she’s tough as hell. I wouldn’t want to cross swords with that woman, with that said, I’m not a fan or even like her just a little, but I do respect her crazy @zz.

Sadly she and Trump were fire and Dynamite, which was to be expected from day one.

Most people don't like Nancy Pelosi because she comes across as just a bitter and jealous old crony way past her prime.

Worried about her being a liability? Nothing matters anymore. Look at who they just elected in Pennsylvania.
Pelosi is one of the biggest drifters ever in DC. Liar thief and phony. Democrat MO these days.

Default Nancy Pelosi = Corrruption

Nancy Pelosi does not get a pass for being corrupted and ROTTEN to the core. Along with her teammates Obama and George Soros, they have no respect or consideration for American citizens and the U.S. Constitution.

She is the reason so many voters want term limits for Congress. No career politicians.


"She deserves respect, she's done so much to serve the country." NO! Nancy the Fraud has only EVER served her own interests.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. I’m sure the Deep State oligarchs will buy Nancy a nice gold Rolex for all her years of service.

It's not illegal, yet.

Another thing that needs fixing. That bi-partisan bill that forbids congress people and their spouses from trading in individual stocks needs to be passed.

Nancy Pelosi, vilified by Republicans for years, is a top target of threat
For the better part of two decades, Republicans have targeted Pelosi, the most powerful woman in American politics, as the most sinister Democratic villain of all, making her the evil star of their advertisements and fundraising appeals in hopes of animating their core supporters. The language and images have helped to fuel the flames of anger at Pelosi on the right, fanned increasingly in recent years by a toxic stew of conspiracy theories and misinformation that has thrived on the internet and social media, with little pushback from elected Republicans.
Pelosi is now one of the most threatened members of Congress in the country.

Holy crap. If it's not the race card, it's the woman card. Please acknowledge that people of all races and genders are capable of being obnoxious and incompetent. Otherwise, you live a perpetual state of perceived victim hood. This is the result of decades of women being coddled and told they were being suppressed, even what it is obvious they aren't.

My personal opinion of Pelosi is that she is very good at her job,even though I don't agree with her position on many things. That being said, she is no more or less corrupt and greedy than any other politician. It's hard to admire any of them, but I have to give Pelosi credit for her political successes, especially considering that she started her career when women truly were fighting an uphill battle.

I don’t agree with any sort of political violence but Pelosi deserves to be vilified, and if she’s worried for her safety she can use some of her $135 Million net worth to pay for better security. If she wasn’t such a smarmy witch people might actually like her.

It didn’t take any “language” or “images” for her to become a target. It took Pelosi being herself. The fact that she wasn’t even reprimanded for her behavior at the SOTU address proves that she and those her support her are a bunch of angry little children.

How is it difficult to say, "Not at all"?

Are Democrats who hate Trump misandrists? The notion is preposterous.

Legality is irrelevant, as it's obviously insider trading; a practice that only creates even more disdain for politicians who recently hired thousands of IRS agents to tax garage and Craigslist sales over $600.
Yes, this is another new economic law; while hypocrites in Washington game their own system on a much larger scale.
