Speaker Nancy Pelosi predicted the slimmed-down House Democratic majority will nonetheless gain power with Joe Biden in the White House.
But so far, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell isn’t budging on his refusal to consider Pelosi’s massive coronavirus aid bill, even with Biden’s presidency looming.
“Whether you're in the minority or majority, if the president is of your party, you have more power," Pelosi said Friday at a post-election press conference.
Pelosi said “Mitch McConnell is going to find out … not having Donald Trump in the White House is going to change his leverage, and that dynamic.”
Republicans predict the opposite result.

This would be a fitting end for Pelosi (In a symbolic sense, of course):
“When Jezebel heard that Jehu had arrived in Jezreel, she made herself up—put on eyeshadow and arranged her hair—and posed seductively at the window. When Jehu came through the city gate, she called down, “So, how are things, ‘Zimri,’ you dashing king-killer?”
Jehu looked up at the window and called, “Is there anybody up there on my side?” Two or three palace eunuchs looked out.
He ordered, “Throw her down!” They threw her out the window. Her blood spattered the wall and the horses, and Jehu trampled her under his horse’s hooves.
Then Jehu went inside and ate his lunch. During lunch he gave orders, “Take care of that damned woman; give her a decent burial—she is, after all, a king’s daughter.”
They went out to bury her, but there was nothing left of her but skull, feet, and hands. They came back and told Jehu. He said, “It’s God’s word, the word spoken by Elijah the Tishbite:
In the field of Jezreel,
dogs will eat Jezebel;
The body of Jezebel will be like
dog-droppings on the ground in Jezreel.
Old friends and lovers will say,
‘I wonder, is this Jezebel?’”
II Kings 9:30-37 (MEV)

The woman is flipping crazy. She is in panic mode because she LOST so many seats to republicans!!! If the decision to vote the president come to the House, President Trump wins. She really screwed that up and they know it.

It would appear that Nancy is dependent on Republican traitors in the senate to get her bills through.
There are some there that are definitely untrustworthy, she may have a point.
I don't know how anyone can believe that raising the National Debt with money giveaways can do anything but destroy faith in the American dollar. They will have to do one of two things .
Either raise the debt and print more money ----killing the trust in the dollar
Or raise taxes to an ungodly level.

She wants to fight McConnell? My suggestion to her is to practice falling down first, then go see Mitch.

Your arguments may be true, Nancy, but no one knows if Joe will remember who he is, where he is and who the Hell is Nancy Pelosi????

I don't think so Nancy! First of all, I personally think there is a good chance another Election will be held before all is said and done. Those Battleground States are a mess and have no fair way of calling their elections right now. The Voting Machines won't be used if they have a redo! So, that's going to change a lot in the down Ballot as well as the Presidential Race! When the dust settles, Poor Nancy is going to be out! I think if that happens, she will retire. She isn't going to just be a Nobody in the House. She wants to be Queen or nothing! We prefer she's a Nothing!

Ever notice that all of Pelousy’s “predictions” are wrong?

Can't wait to see the "Best we could do" compromise that Mitch has in his back pocket. No socialism here...just another tranche of free government money from an empty Treasury. Put it on our account, China.

If, when, coulda, woulda. Pelosi and her flying monkeys are under tremendous pressure to immediately begin rebuilding burned-out cities because the residents of those "mostly peaceful" war zones will rightfully figure out that it was their democrat mayors and governors who are responsible for their misery, crime and lack of shoplifting opportunities. Naturally it's going to take millions and millions of dollars because the Zulus had themselves a ball for eight months. Of course it's her natural tendency to blame democrat-fueled misery on Trump, it's the only arrow left in her quiver.

Pelosi is failing as a house leader. She has to change the subject. A vile, vindictive woman. She won't do a covid relief package because Trump would get credit. A relief package will only come if Biden wins the election. To hell with the American people.

She is so eaten with envy and hatred she cannot see straight. I am sorry her district seems to be so crooked that they keep voting for her. They have no right to complain, not at all, about her worn and elderly tired ideas.
#1, very interesting Biblical comment.

In a fight between Pelosi and McConnell, my money is on Cocaine Mitch. He is shrewd as can be, and I am not too sure about Pelosi's mental health these days.

It isn't right to pray for someone to have misfortune, so I won't.
But, if she does, I'll smile.

Notice in the last couple of months, Nasty Nancy has gone off the rails ?
Will somebody tell Congress they work for We the People and We pay their salaries ? This isn't about US anymore. I resent every paycheck they receive while American taxpayers are hurting.
