Nancy Pelosi’s Democratic Foes Think They Have The Votes To Block Her

You have no idea how corrupt the DNC is... the old guard will keep power and they will do what needs to be done to get their way. Pelosi will get whatever she wants.

 

Doesn't matter who it is. Dem or Rep... all are competing for power. Politics follows consistent rules across cultures and history. Corruption is built into the game and used to play the game. Expect it. Being without corruption is the exception, not the rule. This is why I expect it.

 

You guys sound desperate to know who you are going to be b****ing about the next two years nonstop,

Most Dems are okay with Pelosi unless a better candidate runs against her. I don’t think she’s the strongest in front of a camera but she’s a really good legislator. Also doesn’t mind being the villain of the right kind of like how McConnell embraces it on the right. She has a job to do and won’t care about what people like you write about on online forums.

Corruption in the DNC??... a Trump fan in 2018 has no moral high ground to point fingers at Dems for corruption.

Democrats get conspiracy theories about corruption while Trumplicans continue to get indicted for Corruption. (See Trump appointed EPA head just yesterday getting indicted for corruption).

 

Look at these two idiots argue about things they know nothing about

 

I think it will be a mistake to replace Pelosi at this point. Im not a fan of Pelosi by any means, however if the DNC puts a 'Never Trumper' in her place (like many Democrats want), its not going to fare well in the end. Pelosi will be able to negotiate Trump much better than many in the house.

 

Pelosi likely has all the support she needs.

What will be interesting will be how many "freshman" members will get leadership positions, if any.

 

I don't care for Pelosi

Doug Mataconis at OTB thinks this could be a problem for Dems down the line even if Pelosi makes it. "In the end, I expect that Pelosi, Hoyer, and Clyburn will beat back this challenge and end up being easily elected. However, the fact that there’s even a controversy could portend problems in the years to come."

Dems rule by seniority, so their chairmen never retire and hold the gavel forever (GOP has rotating chairmanships)

 

Trump promised Pelosi some votes to put her over the hump!

Anyway, these 20 democrats are counting on someone who can gain a consensus to emerge. Maybe that happens. But, if it doesn't, it puts a ton of pressure on them to cave. They have a big agenda of harassing Trump to get started on, and the last thing they need right now is uncertainty about the leadership. If they can't quickly find someone else that can get 218 votes, I think they will have to concede and vote for Pelosi in the end anyway.

 

Pelosi had her time, but now she needs to pass the torch.

 

It's time for her to step out of the picture all together if you ask me.

 

Pelosi is a monster fundraiser, rich Dem donors love her

 

She is some what like Hillary in the sense that she does not know when to step out.

 

Pelosi seems to have taking Harrassing Trump off the table so . . . . .

Pelosi is a skilled and formidable legislator and can get things done. However, I would have no problem with new blood in leadership positions.

 

Can somebody tell me what Pelosi has done that she should be removed from her job.

And who is this person that should replace her?
