Pelosi: My Life Goal is to Ensure Trump Never Steps Foot in the White House Again

Nancy Pelosi's influence was evident in all aspects of the Democratic Party's efforts to reorganize in the challenging weeks leading up to the nomination for the 2024 presidential election. Pelosi publicly encouraged President Joe Biden to make a decision about running for a second term when he confirmed he had no plans to step down. Once he withdrew and endorsed his vice president Kamala Harris for the candidacy, Pelosi was among the first to welcome the selection of Tim Walz as the vice-presidential candidate. However, for the former House Speaker, it's not just about Biden, her friend of 40 years; it's more about the Republican candidate Donald Trump, whom Pelosi refers to as "Bozo," "snake oil salesman," or "whatever his name is," or "creature of the black lagoon." Pelosi stated, while pounding the table, "How can I say this in the gentlest way possible: My life goal is to ensure that this man (Trump) never steps foot in the White House again." Pelosi spoke to reporters yesterday about her new book "Power Plays: My Journey as the First Woman Speaker of the United States House of Representatives," which calls for an end to political violence in the country. However, this recent chapter, not included in the book, of Pelosi's career demonstrates the soft power she still wields, which could change the course of American history.
