    Jeet Heer Retweeted Nancy Pelosi

    Pelosi owes her position to a wave election where the Democrats won 53.4% of the vote, a full 8.6% more than Republicans (44.8%). What fuelled that victory was widespread antipathy towards Donald Trump. Yet Pelosi has retreated from this promise.https://twitter.com/TeamPelosi/status/1038447651015090176 …

        Fun fact: Obama tried. Senate Dems voted to stop him. Among those who helped to block Obama? Sen. Bernard Sanders.

        Reminiscent of her previous ascendance which was due to Bush's almost biblical incompetence. She failed to impeach there too. History doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes.

        I can't recall when she's used power of the House to hold anyone accountable. Not Bush for Iraq & spying + torture + etc. Not financial criminals in 2009. She knows the power, but does not wish to employ the people's strength through the legislature + hold the powerful to account

        Replying to @HeerJeet @brianbeutler

        Since most of what Pelosi does is behind the scenes, you have no way of judging whether she's moving forward effectively or not, right now. This is what trust is about. And faith. It's believing you've judged someone's character correctly, and giving them space to do the job.

        Why would anyone have "trust" or "faith" in a politician? Seriously, they're not better or smarter than you, so you don't have to trust or have faith in them.
