Appearing even more unhinged than she usually is, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made a spectacle of herself yesterday, telling MSNBC that President Donald Trump and the Republican Party were “enemies of the state … domestic enemies” who are seeking to “scare people from voting to intimidate them by saying he’s going to have law enforcement people at the polls, to welcome Russian intervention into our election by letting Putin decide who will be president instead of the American people.” These “enemies of the state” she warned ominously “live at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and in the United States Congress.”
But, she sputtered in her self-righteous indignation, just “ignore him, because his purpose is to diminish the vote, to suppress the vote.” In his remarks to the Republican National Convention yesterday, Trump again warned of efforts to “rig the election” and defraud the American people, through mail-in voting.
