Nancy: Republicans are enemies of the state (1 Viewer)

"Nothing was more to be desired than that every practicable obstacle should be opposed to cabal, intrigue, and corruption. These most deadly adversaries of republican government might naturally have been expected to make their approaches from more than one querter, but chiefly from the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils. How could they better gratify this, than by raising a creature of their own to the chief magistracy of the Union?" - Federalist No. 68

Nancy Pelosi calls Republicans 'domestic enemies' and 'enemies of the state' and stuns MSNBC host - TheBlaze

Any dems willing to say this is shameful irresponsible dangerous rhetoric?

Sure, as soon as Trump supporters denounce this dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric, which they haven't.

US President Donald Trump has called Democratic lawmakers' failure to appreciate his State of the Union address last week "treasonous" and "un-American". "They certainly didn't seem to love our country very much," he said during a visit to a manufacturing plant in Cincinnati, Ohio. "It's very very sad."

Don’t hold your breath expecting any Dem to condemn that. :lol:

why should we when you Trump sycophants won't condemn your own orange oompa loompa's dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric. You made your beds, sleep in them. Trump and Trump supporters ARE enemies of the United States.
 
"...the domestic enemies to our voting system and our honoring our Constitution are right at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with their allies in the Congress of the United States."

Yup. Nancy, telling it like it is. So sorry it's true. Although, to be fair, she did not say 'Republicans.' The headline us inaccurate.
 
She has no shame or decency.

Power has gone to her head. Or, like Mr. Joe, maybe she is having brain health issues.

Her previous antics were trivial, e.g., demanding her own airplane (replete with delicious food) to fly back and forth from D.C. to California.

But just think of her recent words and comments:

a. Tore up the State of the Union speech.
b. Kneeling to BLM.
c. Dismissing vandalism with "People will do things."
d. Using the term "stormtroopers" to describe federal agents protecting federal buildings against arsonists.
e. Now her branding Republicans as "domestic enemies."

The only good thing about the likely election of Mr. Biden is that, sooner rather than later, AOC and her ilk will insist on Nancy's retirement.
 
Don’t hold your breath expecting any Dem to condemn that. :lol:

For someone who spends half his time on DP trying to call those you consider tribal enemies hypocrites, you really should take more care. I don't recall seeing you (or any Trumpist ever) condemn Trump for calling the press the "Enemy of the People".

Does Journalism Have a Future? | The New Yorker

The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! They can’t stand the fact that this Administration has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first 2yrs. They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!

Not until you do.

Your side has been saying the same **** about the left for decades.

Y'all.just need to reap this whirlwind you sowed.

"Be civil,.libtard!" is without a doubt the most vapid narrative I have ever seen.

You should be embarrassed to post such stupid.
 
The way they are behaving, reporting and making editorial decisions, i.e. anything to attack the administration and mindlessly repeating Dem talking points, hard to consider them as friends of the American people.

Yeah how dare they report on his own stupid words and actions.
 
Do you ever think they'll figure out how stupid their media thinks they are?

Nope

They have to peacefully pass away and be replaced by people who are much more media savvy. Those that grew up with a phone in their hand.

Meaning you hate America and it's values. The free press is what keeps us free. That is what you hate about us.
 
Sure. Pelosi shouldn't be calling the opposition the enemy. There. simple.

Now, should Trump be calling the media the enemy?
Should he be calling anyone who doesn't agree with him "human scum"?
Are you willing to acknowledge that your pot is also black?

Nancy Pelosi calls Republicans 'domestic enemies' and 'enemies of the state' and stuns MSNBC host - TheBlaze

Any dems willing to say this is shameful irresponsible dangerous rhetoric?

She did NOT call ALL Republicans "enemies of the state".

domestic enemies to our voting system and our honoring our Constitution are right at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue with their allies in the Congress of the United States," Pelosi said.

The article says:

"They're doing everything they can, suppress the vote with your actions, scare people, intimidate by saying law enforcement will be there, uh, diminish the role of the postal system and all of this, it's really actually shameful," she added.

"Enemies of the state," Pelosi repeated.

But she didn't repeat "it"; she called this maladministration and the Senators and Congressmen that support it; "enemies of the state" ... once.

The whole article is a disingenuous spin of what she was saying. :shock:

I'm not a Democrat, but I will opine.

The kind of language that Pelosi used in that one-minute clip is not helpful. She left too much room for misinterpretation, which is I think what happened. Trump is most assuredly an enemy of the state. His supporters might or not might be depending on the individual. Republicans are all over the place. Some support Trump. A lot don't. I think Pelosi's criticism was directed at Trump and Trumpists and congressional Republicans but not Republicans or conservatives at large.
