Nancy Pelosi is a thousand-year-old walking skeleton who can’t open a bag of chips without assistance. Despite this, the House Speaker claims that if she hadn’t been evacuated from the Capitol on January 6, she would have totally kicked the asses of the rioters. While this is pure fantasy, it does show that her fear during the “deadly insurrection” was less than she previously stated and her reaction completely overblown.
Here’s some unintentional comedy from USA Today:
On her 100th day as speaker of the 117th Congress, Nancy Pelosi discussed the dramatic events that opened her tenure, when a mob that stormed the Capitol wanted to kill her.
“That’s what they were setting out to do,” she told USA TODAY, if her security agents hadn’t managed to evacuate her from the House chamber in time. Asked if that frightened her, she replied, “Well, I’m pretty tough. I’m a street fighter. They would have had a battle on their hands.”
Pelosi would lose a fight against a stiff breeze, but she was going to beat up a mob of mostly-leftists that the Capitol Police couldn’t stop? According to her, yes. And this is how she would have done it:
Besides, she said with a laugh, lifting a foot clad in her classic 4-inch-high stilettos, “I would have had these” to use as weapons.
Even if she had the upper-body strength, and she doesn’t, to wield a shoe as a weapon, it would have been no match for Buffalo Guy and BLM activist John Sullivan. She truly lives in a fantasy world, which is to say that her mind is as far gone as Joe Biden’s.
In fact, this may be the craziest part of the interview:
In a wide-ranging interview, Pelosi described a historic start for the new Congress and President Joe Biden, one “on par” in ambition and impact with the first 100 days of FDR and LBJ. She called Biden skilled in Washington politics and bolder in policy than many expected. “Transformative and visionary and experienced,” she said.
Biden is visionary in the sense that he sees things that aren’t there and that’s not a quality one wants in the person in charge of the nuclear codes.
Pelosi continued her “tough girl” routine by claiming she wasn’t scared during the Capitol protests/riots/insurrection:
“I was never personally afraid because I had so much security for myself,” said Pelosi.
If she was never personally afraid, why did she make such a big deal out of it? She erected a a wall around the Capitol, had national Guard troops stationed, and impeached Donald Trump because she said January 6 was a terrifying attempt to destroy democracy. Now she says she wasn’t scared at all. In addition to being crazy, she’s also full of shit.
Nancy Pelosi has that white trash Baltimore accent, which maybe she thinks makes her tough but she’s no street fighter. She’s never even played the Street Fighter video game or seen the horrible movie starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. She’s a rich privileged elite and always has been. The only ass-kicking she does is by abusing her power to stomp our rights.
Had the Capitol rioters confronted Pelosi, she would have shit her pants. Given her age, chances are there’s always something stinky in her adult diapers, but she still would have been terrified and definitely wouldn’t have knocked anyone out with her shoes.
