Reporter asks Pelosi about Trump's threat to investigate democrats or whatever

Pelosi laughs and says "The President also says this was a great day for republicans, so let's put it in context."

She says they have a responsibility for oversight that isn't optional, doesn't really give any indication they're backing down on any investigations. Says committees make the decisions about things like tax returns, not her

my secret master plan is clearly to talk up the Sanders > Warren > Gillibrand ranking, so that when people decide 'actually we don't want an old' they're primed for my true favorite candidate without me needing to actually go against the Bernistas

Someone punch Bernie in the stomach so hard he spits out an egg that hatches called "Bernie" and it runs in the Democratic primary in 2020 under the guise of "BerJunior"

By Inverse Dragon Ball Z Logic, wouldn't the egg bernie be evil?

I'm just saying be careful what you wish for.

Besides, Bernie should run, and even if he dies mid campaign he will still be a better candidate than half of the remaining field. Just make sure that VP goes to Klobuchar, Gillibrand, or someone that will prop up his corpse a la weekend at Bernie's: Whitehouse edition.

:chloe:

Tammy Duckworth seems okay on paper, but she doesn't seem to advocate for much of the policy I want to see. Besides, she will have a really hard time propping up Bernie's corpse for four years. We need someone that can lift 95 pounds of flesh, and has a decent ventriloquist act.
