    IMO it became very evident very quickly after Trump became president, that Pelosi was extremely bad for the Democrats. Pelosi actively prevented Democrats from acting on issues that had a clear majority and great significance.
    It’s absolutely a plus for Democrats that Pelosi is finally out.

      Her insider trading was also drawing a lot of heat. Now we’ve all forgotten about it!

        We must also not forget that there’s a bunch of Republicans that made even more profit than her doing the same thing but they never get talked about! Politicians should only be allowed to invest in total market ETFs!

      I think It’s been clear since the Dubya days that Pelosi was bad and new leadership was necessary.
