Monday on MSNBC’s Live, doddering House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had the nerve to label President Trump and his Republican allies “enemies of the state.”
“Don’t pay attention to Donald Trump,” Pelosi began. “It’s his goal to scare people from voting, to intimidate them by saying he’s going to have law enforcement people at the polls. To welcome Russia intervention into our election, letting Putin decide who will be President instead of the American people. Ignore him because his purpose is to diminish the vote, to suppress the vote.”
To paraphrase Mary McCarthy’s famous line, every word of that paragraph is a lie, including “and” and “the.”
Pelosi continued her rant: “We take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic. And sadly, the domestic enemies to our voting system and honoring our Constitution are right at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with their allies in the Congress of the United States. But again, let’s just get out there and mobilize, organize, and not let the President deter anybody from voting. And again, support the postal system, which is election central.”
The postal system is not election central; the voting booth is. The postal system is voter fraud central.
“They’re doing everything they can, suppress the vote with their actions, scare people, intimidate by saying law enforcement will be there, diminish the role of the postal system and all of this. It’s shameful, enemies of the state.” What’s shameful is that the House Speaker would publicly label the President a domestic enemy.
