    This is interesting and informative on the way democrat minds work and indicative of the way the world would be if they ever took complete control. Two sets of rules, one for the ruling elites and one for us peons.
    As we are told to limit family get togethers Nancy planned a huge gala event. She got caught this time and had to slink back in her hole.


    "The office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced that its in-person dinner for new Democratic members of Congress has been canceled after a viral tweet showing the tables being set up for the event sparked backlash amid the coronavirus pandemic."

    This lockdown has really highlighted how trashy Pelosi really is.

    Her old entitled ass needs to step down.

    Pretty sure the governor of CA was telling people to cancel Thanksgiving plans while attending a dinner party with dozens of people.

    The rules are about control. Nothing more.

    Agreed she did a dumb. It might suggest she's not perfect.

    I do get a humorous kick out of this thread though. Pelosi gets nailed for doing something stupid by a bunch of people who probably don't even own or at least don't use a mask.

    I don’t know about the rest of the fools on this forum, but I do wear a mask when I leave the house.

    It’s simply common sense that it will reduce the spread of the virus, and I respect my fellow Americans enough I don’t even want to risk spreading it to them if I am positive.

    Straw man attempt fail. It's not about mask, it's about the ruling elites planning a huge event as they tell the rest of us to limit family holiday gatherings.

    It seems that there are a whole lot of politicians that think that they need to set rules for the little people while they don't apply to themselves. Newsom, Gov. Whitmer's husband, the Mayor of Chicago, Quomo's brother (Fredo). Actually they only have that rule to hammer conservatives with while the left seems to ignore it on a wholesale level at times.

    So, this is what? The third Coronavirus misstep by Pelosi? There was that time she went down to China town at the beginning of the pandemic? Then there was that time with her hairstylist? Now this. She's a walking hot zone.

    Yeah, it requires a sense of humor not known by most trumpers.

    Oh you mean the event that didn't happen?
    Yep. Really bad idea to organize it. Good thing that the democrats reacted and did the right thing.
    But please, keep on yelling about the thing that didn't happen.

    Pelosi is a garbage human being. And her party is turning on her.

    I love it.

    Pelosi, Trump - they both need to be ejected from the game.
    Trump led the charge toward a wave of infections in the Mid-west.
    Pelosi's dumb actions just add fuel to fire.

    Trump saved millions of lives according to original estimates.

    While taking action to save those lives, people like pelosi just called him racist lol.

    Trump stopped direct flights from China ...
    but then screwed up by letting indirect flights to keep coming through South Africa and Europe into NYC.
    You can see it in the shift from the original out-break on the West Coast to the subsequent outbreak in NY.
    Trump did nothing of value. And since that point, he has advocated not using masks and social distancing.
    Now, his ineptitude has led to the infection of over 100 of his own Secret Service staff. The guy is a certified dick.

    Naw, those are just common spreaders. There are no super spreaders better than a trump rally. I take that back. Perhaps Sturgis was as bad as a trump rally.

    How racist would that have been, do you think, considering the claims of racism after banning flights from China?

    Bet you'd have been on here claiming he was out to get brown people.

    Save it.

    She was FORCED to stop it. Her own stupidity was called out by everyone and she backed down hard.

    Yes. It was a bad idea.
    When confronted witht the fact that it was a bad idea, these facts were analysed and the decision was changed.
    You certainly can call her out for the original bad decision, I do to. But reversing course is "backing down hard"? I call it just responding correctly, listening to reason, righting a wrong, changing one's mind for the better.
    I guess you are just intent on trying to make hay out of this.
