“So, don’t you accuse me of hate. And as a Catholic, I resent your using the word ‘hate’ in a sentence that addresses me. I don’t hate anyone. I was raised in a way that is full, a heart full of love, and always pray for the president. And I still pray for the president. I pray for the president all the time. So, don’t mess with me when it comes to words like that.”
- Nancy Pelosi on Dec 5th 2019 when asked if she hated Donald Trump,


To be honest, I wish she would feel / would have felt a little more animosity toward Trump, Bush-Cheney-Rove, Mitch McConnell and the rest of the Republicans. But her levels of privilege have alleviated her from having to make that difficult choice. And so all too often, we've ended up with her making calls that don't seem to be fighting the same fight the rest of us are engaged in. She turns the other cheek and prays for Republicans while we lose Roe v Wade and other protections. This is and will remain to be a problem.
