Pelosi schools reporter: You mistook GOP for somebody who gave a damn

August 14, 2020 By Egberto Willies

Sorry, there was a YouTube error.

The President and the Republican leaders of the Senate have failed America. These politicians have left Washington DC likely for weeks while Americans are suffering. The statement Speaker Nancy Pelosi made to the reporter, was necessary to ensure some false narrative did not metastasize.

Speaker Pelosi continues on offense

Watch the full episode here.

Pelosi said the following in her press conference recently with regards to the pandemic & stimulus.

“It’s no wonder we have a vast difference because this administration and Republicans in Congress never understood the gravity of the situation,” Pelosi said. “They called it a hoax. By a miracle, it will go away. They are a hoax.”

And then it happened. A reporter asked a question that good drive a false narrative or worse a false equivalence.

“Do you feel that even a half a loaf in this situation,” the reporter asked. “Something to stem the crisis would be better than nothing.”

Pelosi would have none of it. She was not going to allow that narrative as many others to gain traction. The problem is Republicans playing hardball, The problem is Republicans’ lack of empathy.

“Perhaps you don’t understand ‘nothing.’ This is not half a loaf,” Pelosi responded with disgust. “This is not even being in the same room.”

Pelosi then put on her pleasant level of condescension for the reporter that must be clueless to today’s realities with the evil emanating from the Republicans negotiating.

“I appreciate the goodness that you asked that question with,” Pelosi responded. “Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gave a damn. That isn’t the case.”

    You might want to review something equally as timely. The USPS postmaster general reports that two states, one of which I’m native to, have mail in ballot timing that, under the USPS delivery standards, cannot be delivered on time.

    Interestingly, I received an e-mail yesterday from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania about my mail in ballot, included below:
    “Dear Pennsylvania Voter:

    We are writing to remind you that earlier this year, you signed up to be an annual mail-in voter in Pennsylvania or you recently applied for a mail-in ballot for the general election. Thank you! If you still live in the same county as when you applied, you do not need to re-apply for a mail-in ballot. You will receive a ballot in the mail in September or October, and you will be able to securely vote from the comfort and safety of your home. We are contacting all mail-in ballot applicants, so they do not mistakenly submit duplicate requests.”

    Meanwhile, Trump’s postmaster general released:
    “The U.S. Postal Service has warned at least two states — Washington and the battleground state of Pennsylvania — that some mail-in ballots are at risk of not being delivered on time to be counted in the November general election because the states’ deadlines are too tight for its “delivery standards.”

    So, mail cannot be delivered within one to two months. Something decidedly odd, given that my ballot in the primary was delivered literally within hours to the county and I received an e-mail when my ballot was received.

    This states outright that election interference is literally promised and any election is invalid, hence, our own government will be utterly invalid, unauthorized and the executive branch nonexistent in a Constitutional sense. In short, we will not have a legal government, we’ll have a scofflaw de facto emperor.
    I’ve already taken the liberty to remind my conservative peers, “Those denied the vote by ballot do retain the right to vote by bullet. Some of those peers are members of the Lincoln Project.
    Where do you think that they got imPOTUS from?
