they've got "Good Riddance" trending on Twitter.

"You can always judge a man by the quality of his enemies."
— Oscar Wilde
"I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made."
— Franklin D. Roosevelt

I think these hold for women, too...
Good job, Madame Speaker.

...naturally, for the being the first woman Speaker, but she's been much more than that. She's been the most consequential an effective Speaker since Sam Rayburn without ever having near the majorities and bi-partisan cooperation he had. She's one of the greatest answers to why inclusion makes us a better country. She's been amazing.
