House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., received praise for her multi-hour filibuster on Wednesday from an unexpected source: House Republicans.
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) taunted Pelosi and Democrats after her House floor address on immigration and Dreamers eclipsed the four-hour mark, and said her lengthy floor speech in favor of Dreamers would end up helping the GOP in this year's election.
"The fact that Nancy Pelosi is the face and leader of the Democratic Party is the gift that keeps on giving for the NRCC," said Matt Gorman, a spokesman at the NRCC.
"As her colleagues openly grumble that she's a liability for 2018 and she continues to be the most unpopular politician in the country, I can only say one thing: go, Nancy, go," Gorman said.
