House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) recently bashed President Donald Trump again over his tax cuts. Watch as a fed-up student stands up and teaches the liberal loser a lesson that she won’t soon forget.
Nancy Pelosi doesn’t quite know when to close her mouth. According to Daily Caller, the California Democrat got lambasted with a rude awakening from a student at Georgetown University. It’s about time someone gave Pelosi a good dose of reality, and it was all caught on video.
The footage which was captured on Tuesday, April 24, 2018, shows a well-spoken young man who asked Pelosi if she would still consider Trump’s tax cuts to be crumbs. “Thank you very much for being here today, my name is Sam. I’m from northern Virginia, I’m a freshman in the school foreign service. You have spoken about the effects of the Republican tax plan specifically referring to its effects on average American’s as crumbs,” he said, according to the Washington Examiner.
Sam didn’t waste any time in hitting Pelosi with some good old-fashioned conservative logic. “As the son of small business owners, I know that it’s helped my parents hire more employees. It’s helped us pay off our mortgage, helped put me through college. On a macroeconomic level, the economy is growing, wages are rising for the first time in years. Would you still refer to the effects of this tax plan on average Americans as crumbs?”
“Yes,” Pelosi answered back. “Well, thank you very much, Sam, for your question. And yes there are some benefits that some are feeling in a particular way with the tax bill,” she added. It’s funny how Sam spoke in specific terms with a definitive point and ended by asking Pelosi a concise question only to have Pelosi came right back with a general reply and a non-specific explanation.
Nancy Pelosi goes on to attempt some kind of watered-down version of her previous attacks on Donald Trump’s tax cuts. “My question, my statement was really a fuller statement that says while they provide a banquet for top one percent, they’re giving some crumbs to other people. And that has been something that has been taken up by others as well, some on the Republican side,” Pelosi said.
It’s amusing how Pelosi immediately tries to distribute some of the blame for her previous statements about “crumbs” to other people. Like a true liberal, she can’t even own her words when faced with a solid rebuttal.
“And why I say that is because here’s a tax bill that they advertise as a benefit for the middle-class and did you know that 83 percent of the benefits of the tax bill goes to the top one percent, 83 percent of the benefit to the top one percent. In the life of the bill, 86 million middle-class families will pay more taxes,” Pelosi added.
“The bill adds, and this is of interest to young people, mortgages your future by adding over 2 trillion dollars to the national debt. And that, then they come back and say well, we have 2 trillion dollars added to the national debt, we have to pay for it by cutting,” Pelosi continued.
It’s very entertaining to see Nancy Pelosi posturing as some kind of fiscally responsible politician. She won’t dare talk about all of the obscene spending that she and other Democrats supported under former President Barack Obama. Her hypocrisy really knows no limits.
“The President came out with this budget. The problem with the tax bill is it isn’t that we could not have come to a bi-partisan agreement about how to lower corporate rates to a certain amount, not the way they did or make benefits for some,” Pelosi said as she gestured back at Sam. “But not at the expense of so many others,” she added.
In addition to her comments on Tuesday, Nancy Pelosi has also been quoted as saying that Democrats would get rid of President Donald Trump’s tax cuts if they were able to take over the House of Representatives in the midterm elections. It would have been more honest of Pelosi to simply tell Sam that her party supports massive government welfare programs that prohibit them from giving families like his the economic boost they need to make a small business survive and send their kids to college.
Of course, Pelosi isn’t capable of that kind of transparency or integrity, which is why we continue to laugh at her when a college freshman gets up and schools her on how average Americans think. In my opinion, Sam’s parents deserve a tremendous amount of thanks for raising such an outstanding American. Our country needs more thinkers like Sam.
