Pelosi defends not speaking to Trump for almost a year
By Cristina Marcos - 09/14/20 01:23 PM EDT

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Monday defended not speaking directly to President Trump for almost a year amid the current coronavirus pandemic and wildfire crises, maintaining that she finds it "in the interest of time" to speak to intermediaries.

The president and the Speaker haven't had an extended, face-to-face conversation since Oct. 16, 2019, during a meeting at the White House about Trump's decision to withdraw U.S. troops from northern Syria.

Trump and Pelosi haven't even been in the same room together since February at the National Prayer Breakfast. That came two days after Trump's State of the Union address, where he appeared to ignore Pelosi's attempt at a handshake and she ripped up a copy of his speech afterward.

Maybe she hasn't spoken directly to him in a year -- but she continues to open her yap about him. She needs to just sit down and remain silent.   I think it's high time that she retires.

She can't stand being in the same room as Trump - and I suspect the feeling is mutual.
