(42,862 posts)43. Oh brother. Not a chance. What an insult to Nancy.
Probably learned it from AOC...
Oh brother. What an insult to Nancy. She's much more sophisticated, and she wields her scalpel with great precision and grace.
Frankly, anyone can "clap-back" with sledgehammer insults and name-calling... that takes no effort at all. When anyone CONTINUALLY uses Twitter to slam and insult denigrate others, it becomes old-hat and tedious (look at Trump if you need an example of that.)
But Nancy... ahh... she knows how to wait. She steers clear of the obvious and cheap-shots. Getting into twitter wars for their own sake serves no useful purpose. She knows that when you wrestle with pigs, both get dirty. Instead, she's shown us the wisdom of waiting for the moment that her wit and direct approach will have the biggest impact.
With one little letter, just one quick slice, Nancy has wounded him with an indelible scar that will follow him for LIFE!! He didn't even feel it when it happened.
Nancy rocks!

Absolutely not! Pelosi has been like this for years. She didn't need to "learn" it from anyone!

Someone post Nancy sarcastic-clapping at Trump and tearing up his State of the Union speech.
