COACH PELOSI
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2019/02/coach-pelosi.php
By PAUL MIRENGOFF ~~ A friend emailed me to say that Nancy Pelosi was sending “baseball signs” to “her team” — in other words, signaling to House Democrats how to respond to some of what Trump was saying. Upon further review, my friend is right. For example, Pelosi signaled Dems to stop booing Trump when he spoke about a caravan heading towards our southern border. The booing duly stopped. At another point, she signaled for Democrats to stand up. Most complied.
I don’t recall ever seeing a House Speaker “coaching up” her party’s members during the state of the union address. On the other hand, I don’t recall a House majority caucus being as immature as the current crop of Democrats.
Expect Trump to put his opponent in the 2020 election in the same box. Barack Obama faced a similar problem in 2008, but benefited from (1) John McCain’s unwillingness, for the most part, to play hard ball and (2) his own extraordinary nimbleness.
Trump will play hard ball, and some of the leading contenders for the Democratic nomination don’t appear terribly nimble.

Trump's calls for unity are not hypocritical. It is just that he won't back away from a fight. Really? Only when at the cost of total RINO-like compromise.
Trump is in a sense of neither party -- thus the hatred and resistance to him by both. But he is fully on the side of America.
No, not in the childhood history, Washington and the cherry tree, sense. But in reality. This as demonstrated by all his works.
Can you actually not see this? Or is it simply beyond the Powerline Blog's writers ability to accept this, being, perhaps, a bit too close to the power beast yourselves?
Personally, I thought Pelosi was downright rude and had a look of arrogance on her face through much of the speech. I kept wonder why she was so sour on American greatness, but then the Democratic agenda relies on people being disgruntled, envious of other's achievements, feeling entitled to things they haven't worked for, and most of all being dependent and beholding to government.
