If four girls attending a Q & A with Nancy Pelosi this morning are any indication, the House Democratic Leader and her choice of issues to obsess over aren’t exactly home runs with the younger crowd.
Pelosi was participating in a discussion hosted by Politico when the publication brought up the so-called scandal involving Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
Dissatisfied with Sessions’ recusal, Pelosi said, “There’s a whole Russian connection of personal, political and financial Russian connection of President Trump and his administration and his campaign.
“So if, in fact, these meetings were innocuous, why did he deny that he had them? The fact is, he’s the highest — he’s the top cop,” Pelosi said of Sessions.
“He’s the highest law enforcement officer in the country. He’s supposed to tell the truth.
“What does that say to the lawyers in the Department of Justice. What does that say to the American Bar Association and their standard of professional conduct? To Alabama? They have standards of professional conduct. He’s a lawyer there,” she continued.
At that moment, CSPAN cut to four girls sitting in the audience.
One girl fixed her hair, adjusted the coat on her lap and let out a sigh while moving around in her seat.
The girl next to her turned to watch.
Another girl stretched a kink in her neck.
But Pelosi kept talking.
“And the very idea that they’re making excuses and splitting hairs and this or that, this is, um, we have not seen the end of this,” Pelosi said.
Neither had those unfortunate girls, as the Q & A wasn’t even half over.
