It will come as no surprise to those who know me that I have little respect for Congressional Democrats in general and for their leaders in particular. I’ve been saying for a long time that they appear to me to be mentally and morally unfit for the roles they inhabit. I’ll say more about this in future posts, but Victor Davis Hanson, with a hint of stridency not normally detectable in his writing, here makes a similar case against one of those Democrat leaders: Nancy Pelosi. Read it all.
“It does not matter whether her political and ethical decline was a result of her deep pathological hatred of Donald Trump. Who cares that her paranoia arose over the so-called “Squad” that might align with socialist Bernie Sanders to mesmerize Democrats to march over the cliff into McGovern-like oblivion? All concede that very few octogenarians have the stamina and clarity to put in the 16-hour work-days and transcontinental travel required by a Speaker of the House.
“Instead, all that matters is that for a nation in extremis she is now puerile, even unhinged—and increasingly dangerous.”
