36. She is

Dec 2019

the MOM of moms when it comes to keeping her caucus in line. She is a master politician, strategist and leader. I never doubted her knowing full well what we are dealing with. She will be instrumental in rebuilding our country when this is done... and I will be thrilled with what she has in mind when that time comes. Notice that even House members who doubted her now show her the utmost respect and admiration.

We all need to keep in mind that not only has this woman been on the political scene for her entire life, she has either written, sponsored or voted for every law since she entered the House. She knows the Constitution like she knows her own name.

With the foe we have before us, there was no other person in the House who could have guided us to this point. She is wise, holds her cards close to her chest and rarely reveals what she has going on that isn't an idea ripe for the public's consumption, just like a good, protective mom.

She's one of the most American of Americans ever, without being a zealot, and she'll protect our rights as long as she's around.
