Just read a post by someone who's "never going to like" Nancy Pelosi.

And YET is really impressed with her now.

I don't know whether the person is a Democrat, an Independent, or Republican, just that the (non-public) site includes non-Trumpers of every stripe.

I'm never going to like her. I will STAND ON A WALL.....AND DECLARE HOW WELL SHE DOES HER JOB. HOW MUCH SHE HAS DONE TO MAKE THE WORD GOVERNMENT MEAN =elected Representatives from every district in the Nation WHO WEIGH AND BALANCE, GIVE AND LET GO, use respect and knowledge and understand that "tolerance -the word- means agree even when it's not everyone's 1st choice, and they will for the good of mankind make it work. Tolerance is not a term of endearment. It's a term of consideration - like the others have the same rights . Dignity.


I like to think that Americans all over the country are developing a new respect for the Speaker of the House.

Someone who has never liked Pelosi greatly respects what she is accomplishing.

I'm happy to see that.

understood why it's not ok to not want her as party leader. Isn't it a person's freedom of choice and opinion?
