Pelosi: Trump 'the most dangerous person in the history of our country'

https://variety.com/2020/politics/features/nancy-pelosi-trump-election-2020-democrats-hollywood-1203521090/

<snip>

“We have the most dangerous person in the history of our country sitting in the White House,” Pelosi says. “That’s different from what happened in 2016. People thought Hillary would win so they didn’t all turn out. Nobody could possibly think that somebody like Donald Trump could be elected president of the United States. But if you don’t turn out, those who do turn out will call the shots.”

The entire article, a profile of Speaker Pelosi, is wonderful (must read)! But, this one passage stands out - she's not known for being hyperbolic.

It is obvious to anyone with a working brain cell. (Trump cult excluded)

She is a little late with her statement.

Everyone should have spoken up sooner.

Did she just realize how dangerous this man is ???

If you are trying to defend her to me, you can stop.

There is no defense for ALL the people in our government who have not spoken out against Trump.

That includes all the people who have quit the Trump administration and are now writing books.
