      Speaker Pelosi: "I want the Republican Party to take back the party. Take it back to where you were when you cared about a woman's right to choose and you cared about the environment ... Here I am, Nancy Pelosi, saying this country needs a strong Republican Party ... Not a cult." pic.twitter.com/XMy9zM0yLF

      I can't think of another political party in any democracy that says they don't want to defeat their rivals.

          That's unfair, I think. Obviously Pelosi wants her Party in power - she is just saying she'd like to be competing against a legitimate political party, not a dangerous cult.

          Listen to the clip. She said: "Rather than say, 'We have to defeat them,' no, let's just try to persuade them."

          Well that's only because all of those other parties aren't completely terrified of having and wielding power.

          I’m sure she wants to defeat Republicans. However, our government is no longer working. In order for it to work again, we need to have a solid second party, i.e., two parties that favor country over party.
