My only disagreement is about how important it is that 'the repugs see what she's doing, too'.

Catch 22 says Speaker Pelosi can do anything that she wants to, to the repugs, that they can't stop her from doing.

She and the leadership can make moves, then watch to see the countermoves where the repugs try to stall or speed up, then make moves to counter their moves.

Get all the repug senate candidates up for election tied to their defense of that bloated fascist failure anchor. Right in time for 2020.
