She’s too right wing for my tastes, is shady to colleagues to her left, and she’s corrupt and kinda out of touch… but yes she’s good at celebrity appearances so I’ll give her that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s an ultra rich corporate dem that has been blocking legislation like banning lawmakers from trading stocks (which would pass the house easily if she would stop refusing to put it up for a vote). She also has a history of sticking it to the progressives in the dem party which has been pissing a lot of people (it’s because of her deal that we didn’t get the build back better act passed) That being said she has also been an extremely effective leader, passing legislation like the ACA, infrastructure deal, CHIPS act, American Rescue Plan, the soon to be Respect of Marriage Act, etc. Shes very socially progressive but has used her position to block anti corruption legislation.

An outspoken LGBT ally before it was acceptable to be one, she rose to prominence in the 80s for standing up to Reagan's homophobic response to the AIDS crisis. Not just that, Pelosi is also responsible for raising the minimum wage, preventing health insurance from turning people away and giving over $4 trillion in government aid to save the US and global economy. Is that not good enough for you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that not good enough for you? I literally just called her an incredibly effective leader, listed many of her legislative achievements and alluded to her social advocacy I am very capable of celebrating her advocacy and achievements while also recognizing her short comings which turn many people off from her.

Is that not good enough for you? Just because she has done good thing means that we need to turn a blind eye to the bad things she has done? Absolutely not. She is a politician. Leave the blind devotion for religion. It is our duty as citizens of a democracy to always speak up when something is wrong and Pelosi has done wrong things. That is irrefutable. She may have done great things in the past, but our present needs more than just progressive social politics. People of her generation and wealth are completely out of touch with what is happening in this country right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
