Nevermind that @NancyPelosi very much wants to arm the incoming class with every tool and weapon she knows of to legally battle Trump or any who might follow him, she understands optics and politics too well to do even half of what you say.

Knowing all of these things, and having watched #SpeakerPelosi in action, in real time, over the years she has come to gain not only my respect and admiration, but also my real affection.

Now, define things as you will but I am a bona fide progressive.
