She seems to be precisely on point right now. She struck at a time that let everything focus on a particularly lame Trumpism, and it looks like there's much more to discover coming up.
Nancy Pelosi is our most experienced House member in many ways. She knows how Congress works. She understands national politics. She gets it. It's just that simple.
Trump is in full panic mode, which means he's more likely than ever to do stupid things that hurt himself.
In my opinion, there is nobody who could handle this situation better than the distinguished House member from California right now.
Just say "Nay" to "Naysayers."

(146,254 posts)Strategic measures often require waiting for the right time to strike. I know a lot of people hate waiting, but it's often necessary in large scale situations. Nancy Pelosi understands that. We should trust her to make the right moves at the right time.

(23,478 posts)masters at propaganda. We don't know how this will end.
She is brilliant and doing a great job.
I don't know if anything can be enough to take down this cabal. I don't know that anyone can take them down.
It's all pretty much out of our hands now. All we can do is our best to educate other voters.

He's only able to to identify criminals and suck ups. He's not good when it comes to people with integrity.

She put the right committee in charge right now. The Intelligence committee because this crime comes under that umbrella. Then she plans to move all findings from the various committees to the Judiciary which is in line to bring impeachment charges, and that's the proper committee.

(33,249 posts)In more colorful terms, Pelosi stood in front of a firey shitstorm while waiting for Trump to impeach himself and for the public to recognize and support the need to impeach. She protected the most vulnerable of her House with her stance. That very stance created its own storm which increased public awareness and further increased the informing of the public. Even the noise of those who opposed her helped accomplish the rousing of the electorate.
She could be retired and relaxing with her family. We are lucky to have her experience, knowledge, skill, and toughness while we face an existential threat to our democracy.
