Pelosi Gets Worse as She Gets Ready to Leave Congress

I really can’t stand Nancy Pelosi, the hypocritical fraud tossed out on her boney rear end by the American public in the last election. The soon to be former Speaker of the House, historic in that she lost the House of Representatives twice, has always been a power-mad post-digested food human exit port (I’m trying to keep it clean while being disgusted by her existence, forgive me). But (no pun intended) on her way out the door, she has decided to become even worse.

The woman has made a fortune in “public service,” seeing her family’s net worth skyrocket to somewhere between $200 and $300 million while she “fought hard for the poor.” (Can’t help but notice how she never cut them a check…)

While the Pelosi fortune will last for generations, ensuring her kids and grandkids will have no need to work, leaving them free to “pursue their passions” or simply be degenerates, your family probably won’t have that luxury. Small dollar donors to Democrat politicians won’t have that luxury either, yet this outgoing Speaker is still desperate to milk them for all they’re worth.

Imagine being someone so gross that they’d ask people of modest means to go into credit card debt so you could fund a vanity project. You wouldn’t be able to do it, it’s too disgusting. That gene giving you some dignity, along with having a brain in your head while not being evil, will prevent you from ever becoming leader of the Democrats. 

Nancy Pelosi has no such dignity gene. She has started the “Pelosi Legacy Fund,” a way for her to continue to milk her considerable fundraising list of money which she will be able to use to play king-maker and pay her travel expenses and much more for the rest of her life. You didn’t expect her to pay for her lifestyle out of her own pocket, did you?

After explaining how she’s passing the torch to a new generation of “leaders,” Pelosi then hits up her supporters by announcing her plans. “So it is my honor to announce the Pelosi Legacy Fund to continue the work we started,” she wrote. “Every dollar we raise will help fund our work to ELECT incredible Democrats, DEFEAT extremist Republicans who want to unroll our progress, and support our INCREDIBLE new Democratic Leadership that will fight for working families. I’m hoping for a historic show of support – 50,000 gifts before midnight – to show the country that Democrats are just getting started delivering for the American people. Can I count on you?”

Gross. Just gross.

She’s emailing people who are small dollar donors, likely struggling to get by, while she dreams of $16 ice cream pints in her $25,000 freezer. “Go grab your credit card and give me $100! Sure, your rates are probably 25%, but who cares? I don’t want to have to fly commercial back and forth to Washington after I retire and those NetJets memberships aren’t cheap.”

Just in case you weren’t dumb enough to give her money the first time, she came back later that same day, November 20, in a new email. “I hate to bother you again, but I need ONE last push of help from my strongest supporters.  I am hoping for just 1 more gift from your area before midnight to hit my FIRST end of Week goal for my Pelosi Legacy Fund!  If we can blow our End of Week goal out of the water, we'll have the resources we need to support our INCREDIBLE Democrats and continue the work we started.  Can I count on you to be the one grassroots donor I am counting on from your area?”

Again, so gross.

But that’s what Nancy Pelosi is – a shameless shrew who never got over that house falling on her sister. That someone with a fraction of what her husband makes in a day would have to go just a little deeper in debt so she can live her best life without having to dip into her own pocket means nothing to her. They owe her, she’s Nancy Pelosi! 

I’m all for people retiring from politics, especially horrible people, and I don’t think we need protection against them milking suckers to pay for their lives afterwards. If you’re dumb enough to give what you earn to people who literally wouldn’t give a single damn about your existence if they had a pocket full of damns it was their job to give, that’s on you. All I ask is for an education system that helps people raise their IQ above that of their shoe size so not only do con artists like Nancy Pelosi lose the ability to scam them, but we don’t get people like her elected to office to begin with. Is that too much to ask?
