& everytime she speaks about a moment during her many years in Gov't, it is a story well worth listening to.
She has lived a one-of-a-kind & remarkable path thru life.
Nancy Pelosi has always held herself with dignity, fairness & absolute knowledge & respect of US Law, & the powers granted her.

What an incredible life she was given.

I have the utmost respect and admiration for Madame Speaker.

I can't understand why some Dems did not support her for this position again when she can run rings around anybody else. Obama's quote about her tonight was spot on.

The hatred the extreme right has for her--to the point of trying to execute her--is because she is so damn good at her job. They just don't get the things she's done that has benefited them.

In that interview, what came up for me:

Her disgust with Trump

The big one was her advice to new House members: It is for the children we do what we do. Children are her "why"

I also really liked her reverence for the Capitol and its history and traditions.
