Nancy Pelosi - what's up with her?
Discussion
Quite apart from anything wrong with her (haven’t looked, haven’t noticed), the sheer childishness of both sides in the US is staggering. He won’t shake her hand. She tears up his speech. Are these leading politicians in a global superpower, or children in a playground?
If they were 10 you’d be giving them a stern talking to after class.

She looks like a corpse that should be dead and buried but instead has been possessed and reanimated by some sort of mischievous spirit.
But then so many of the aged senator/governor types in US politics have the same look, like they are relying on nightly dips in the pool out of Cocoon to keep them alive.
I blame too much plastic surgery when they were in their 60s to try to make them look 40 again.

The way her eyes dart around, hurried movements etc, she doesn't quite look or sound the 'full ticket' to me. I am not 'Pro' Trump, just to be clear, but from observing her behaviour, she seems way off.
Does she have some medical condition I'm not aware of?
I bet you don't dare post that on the Trump thread! Does she have some medical condition I'm not aware of?

There is no reason to start something here !!! We all know Trump is a few sandwiches short of a picnic, not news to anyone

Clearly past her general sell by date, this is what happens when people refuse to retire. She may well be the full ticket but certainly doesn't look it. As another poster mentioned, shes obsessed with trying to get Trump out and its come back to bite her on the ass, after this latest debacle her credibility is in tatters.
Taxi for Pelosi.

Wouldn’t a more balanced approach without an axe to grind be criticising both for their childish behaviour? If people want to criticise looks then there’s plenty to attack on both sides too, although I’m not sure how that alters either persons ability to be a politician whether good or bad looking.

Feel free to suggest the question, just come with a reasoned argument, most trumpettes start with I don't support trump but, then launch into a full trolling 
Ripping up the speach - dunno, first thought was it seemed unreasonable, even with the frustrations of trump and she had some ground after trump didn't shake her hand, however it's taken the limelight from trump which he won't like.
As for is she ill, theres nothing thats been documented, although knowing the US medical situation she's probably on some medication, I think most of the US population that can afford it are on something.
For balance, it's said trump has an adderall addiction, was of course rushed to hospital recently for a 'check up', has doctored his results, is on several medications...

The issue with impeachment is that is always going to be partisan. The Democrats where right to start the proceedings and impeach the president, but he was always going to be acquitted in the senate. This can be classed as a win for both sides as the Dem's have impeached a president, but the GOP will call it all a hoax and they acquitted him. Taxi for Pelosi.
I think that Pelosi wanted to put it off as much as possible, but the Ukraine call was the final straw and pushed it through. The one think Pelosi has been able to do is get under Trump's skin and that will annoy him more than anything due to his narcissism.
She is certainly the full ticket in terms of mental capacity, but she is 79 years old so she is always going to look worse.

I think you can apply that here too in the UK! Ripping up the speach - dunno, first thought was it seemed unreasonable, even with the frustrations of trump and she had some ground after trump didn't shake her hand, however it's taken the limelight from trump which he won't like.

Everyone I meet my in my age group is popping pills of some description, medical or otherwise. Some are popping as many as 8 a day ffs! As are a good number of those a lot younger too.
In 2018 among ALL age groups the NHS was doling out more drugs and medications than ever before, prescription spending that year had increased by 40 per cent since 2011.
What is that figure today? Higher?
Of course.
As for Plastic Pelosi, I have no interest in US politics. We have enough on our plate here!

Christ she’s 79, why don’t their politicians ever retire? Surely they can find someone to run the country who isn’t already in their 70s?
It wasn't always like that. There's currently 3 living presidents born in the same year - Trump, George W. Bush & Bill Clinton. Clinton was elected nearly 30 years ago!Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
