Trump shifts gears, launches attacks on Pelosi
By Mike Lillis and Brett Samuels - 04/17/19 06:00 AM EDT
President Trump is launching new attacks on Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), questioning her leadership chops and veering sharply from his previous practice of touting her skills as an accomplished legislator and formidable rival.
The shift arrives as the 2020 Democratic primary is heating up, leaving some observers to speculate that Trump is simply shifting into campaign mode by taking on a Democratic adversary who has long been radioactive in the eyes of conservative voters.
Democrats have struggled, at times, to unite their diverse new majority, and others maintain Trump’s strategy is designed to deepen those divisions heading into the 2020 elections.
“It allows the president to emphasize that, I think, there’s a lot of confusion when it comes to principles that are governing Democrats,†said Mattie Duppler, a Republican strategist.

I applaud him on this. Nancy should be reigning in on the radical leftists within her cabinet.

Nancy Pelosi is the gift that keeps on giving. She is one of the most important vote getters for the Republican Party. Her not knowing what Omar said is right in line with her overall mindset of learning facts after you vote, i.e. read the legislation after it is voted on to learn what was in it for Obamacare.
On Pelosi's best day, she is a functioning moron. A true gift, thank God!

Her behavior suggests she has dementia, likely due to her age. Dementia is "loss of intellectual functions (such as thinking, remembering, and reasoning) of sufficient severity to interfere with a person’s daily functioning."
With dementia, she likely can't make memories from day to day, has trouble finding the words she wants to say so stumbles with words when speaking.
She likely does, as those who have dementia due to age do, retain long term memory, can remember her many years of history in the House of Representatives and how it operates. No one knows that better than she does and that is why they once again made her the House Speaker. Repeating, she knows how it works, more than any other person. She runs the day to day business of the House. Surely, she won't run again, but I didn't think she would run again this time.
Here is the way to the Presidency - she is third in line to be President. Something happens to Trump and Pence and she is President.
