House Speaker Nancy Pelosi might want to come up with some more “differences” between herself and “the squad” — if she doesn’t want Americans to thinks she’s become a junior member.
At a Capitol Hill news conference late Friday morning, the California Democrat acknowledged that she had “differences” with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, the most visible member of Pelosi’s party in recent months.
But she stressed how much Democrats had in common — “It’s like you’re in a family,” she said.
Well, if Pelosi wants the American people to view her in a sisterhood with Ocasio-Cortez and her “squad,” she’s just played right into President Donald Trump’s hands.
At the news conference, Pelosi fielded a question about a closed-door meeting she had with Ocasio-Cortez for about 30 minutes on Friday morning — and her answer spoke volumes. When a reporter asked if the two had “buried the hatched,” Pelosi responded, “I don’t think there was any hatchet.”
