Nancy Pelosi is a big part of GOP plans to win the midterms

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — House Republicans will lean heavily on Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and her comment that the GOP tax cut amounts to just "crumbs" for people in their quest to retain the majority this year.

In an interview with reporters on Thursday, National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Steve Stivers, R-Ohio, who runs the House campaign arm, said the top Democrat is helping Republicans politically with her own well-publicized criticisms of the GOP.

Most recently, she called the Republican tax reform plan “Armageddon,” and said the $1,000 bonuses some companies awarded as a result of corporate tax cuts are “crumbs.”

“Her crumbs comment,” Stivers said. “That’s something I think we can use pretty effectively.”

Stivers echoed President Trump, who talked about Pelosi when he addressed the Republicans at the Greenbrier Resort Thursday during their annual retreat.

Trump told Republicans Thursday that the “crumbs” comment could hurt Democrats in the same way many believe Hillary Clinton by saying, during a campaign speech, that Trump supporters belong in “a basket of deplorables.”

It's as if some of us can see what Pelosi is, just as Roddy Piper saw the aliens in "They Live". The rest are blind, or ARE the aliens.

The Dems only offer criticism because they can't bring themselves to admit an outsider (Trump) is doing a better job getting things done than they have in the years they have been in DC. Trump and team need to continue draining the swamp.

Pelosi would be a great poster child for a Republican candidate as she is a complete loony moron, but that would takje away from the other dumbocrats that routinely get on TV and make an ass of themselves.
You people that vote dumbocrats should really look in the mirror and ask yourself if these idiots like Schumer and Pelosi really represent your values.
