      Trump is taking an incredibly unpopular stance but acting like he's speaking for the majority while Pelosi is running away from an overwhelmingly popular stance as if she were in the minority. https://twitter.com/jonfavs/status/1151615273968910337 …

      I think her comment that Trump isn't a racist but his words are (much better handled by Elizabeth Warren) is a kind of running away.

          But this was specifically to get around the house rule about calling soneone a racist

          She can call his WORDS racist and that doesn’t break the house rules, but directly calling HIM a racist does break the rules

          Context is slightly important. Was in response to a question about whether the vote condemning his words was too harsh. Paraphrasing, she meant they could have gone further with the statement they voted on, and decided to condemn the words not the man. As Speaker, a small dodge.

          It doesn’t take into account her personal opinion. She went on to say, “...So that was as gentle as [the wording of the resolution] could be, considering the inappropriateness and the disgusting nature of what the president said." https://thehill.com/homenews/house/453558-pelosi-defends-resolution-condemning-trump-as-benign …

          is that a distinction without a difference?

          The statement is. What it means to the people Dems need to movilize definitely isn't.
