One out of touch senior citizen says that another out of touch senior citizen should remain in power.

Their advanced age is not the most important issue. They're out of touch, complacent and unfit to lead the party in such dangerous times.

Welp, I guess she gotta go too then. The democratic program in congress at this point should be a single point:

Resist. Every. Step. Do not aid or abet fascism, do not appease or support it in any way whatsoever, and anyone who falls out of line gets the axe.

They both need to hand they pay over to AOC

When Pelosi can get the fuckin' boot too.

I'm going to do everything possible to get them out come election. Time for them both to retire.

If she ties herself to Schumer that much, maybe it is time for her to go, too.

Amazes me that after Pelosi finally gets dethroned and loses her position, she still tries to issue press releases.

[-] FlexibleToast@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

She's still the one that the press asks questions.

Nancy, you're an ass hair away from losing your entire base.

[-] SarcasticMan@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Do you think it's an envelope of cash or direct deposit or just a check?

[-] NimdaQA@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Of course, Nancy Pelosi doesn’t want her inside trading partner to leave.

[-] droopy4096@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago

While somewhat effective during POTUS45 she's useless now and listening to her is like listening to drier tumbling your clothes - amusing but ultimately useless

[-] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 2 points 4 days ago

Sad reality is that:

no matter how much informed people hate her, the base is still going vote for her because of name recognition and party support
they don't care were the country is heading. they will still get their checks from donors, they will still make money on insider trading
all the terrible things Trump does just means more campaign contributions for the Dems, for all they care Trump winning was good for business
Bernie tried to take over the party and it failed, people can try again but it will be extremely difficult to do
