    Its like the sequel to a movie; last time she saved the country from economic meltdown, now she faces a dimwit wannabe dictator.

    The fact that you believe this woman is anything short of a complete gasbag says volumes.

    If it’s one thing I’m sure of the House under Nancy Pelosi will not be ineffective like the House under Ryan - who was actually a gasbag.

    You underestimate Pelosi at your own peril.

    Politicians kind of remind me of the movie "Pet Cemetery". They just keep coming back.

    Trump has a veto pen and Republicans theoretically have control of the Senate. Nancy can come to the table, compromise, and make deals or she can thrash and expend political capital on impeachment hearings and the like and accomplish nothing. Its her move.

    Republicans want $5B. Dems are offering $0. A responsible legislative leader would make a compromise at $2.5B for wall funding. The government spends more on paper clips.

    You forgot the part where there aren't 50 Republicans in the Senate who support funding the wall.

    Democrats nor republicans should offer anything.

    Actually there are over 50 Republicans in the Senate that support funding the Wall. However the Senate requires 60 votes to pass this budget resolution.
