With the mid-terms only 20 days away, the House Minority Leader decided to go with “toxic masculinity” as a way to appeal to women voters. In fact, Pelosi called the border wall a “manhood issue” for President Donald Trump. Well, the president just made Pelosi regret it. You’ll love this.
Nancy Pelosi sees the writing on the wall. Her blue wave isn’t going to happen. The GOP has surged ahead in many tight races, and she is baffled how to fight back. So her brain trust decided to attack the one policy that really got Trump’s base going: the Southern border wall. Obviously, these liberals aren’t too bright.
The Hill reports, “House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday said President Trump‘s desire for a wall along the U.S-Mexico border is a ‘manhood issue,’ adding that she will oppose the wall and isn’t interested in negotiating.”
“It’s immoral, expensive, ineffective and not something people do between countries,” Pelosi said of the border wall. “In any event, it happens to be like a manhood issue for the president, and I’m not interested in that.”
She also emphasized that President Trump shouldn’t be able to say that Democrats aren’t interested in protecting the border. “That isn’t the only way to protect the border,” she said. “In fact, it’s probably the worst way to protect the border.”
Pelosi told Politico earlier Tuesday that she didn’t see “any” Democrats voting to fund a border wall.
“I don’t see any of us [Democrats] voting for wall funding,” she said. “We have a responsibility to secure our borders. There are ways to do that that are consistent with civilization, humanitarianism and who we are as a nation. We have to remove all doubt about that.”
Townhall reports, “Pelosi told Politico that if Democrats take back the House they would lead with a campaign finance reform bill, then push to lower drug prices, establish a background-check system for gun purchases, and craft legislation to protect Dreamers.”
Well, there you have it. If the Democrats take back the House we can say goodbye to funding the wall. The California Representative is telling us exactly what she’ll focus on: open borders, tighter gun laws, and higher taxes to fund the Dreamers.
What shocked the Democrats in the 2016 election was that 52% of white women voted for President Trump, and yes, they want security and safety. This isn’t a “manhood issue”— this is an American issue.
Well, the president made Pelosi upset when he responded to her attack, tweeting, “Hard to believe that with thousands of people from South of the Border, walking unimpeded toward our country in the form of large Caravans, that the Democrats won’t approve legislation that will allow laws for the protection of our country. Great Midterm issue for Republicans!”

He followed that up with this tweet, “Republicans must make the horrendous, weak and outdated immigration laws, and the Border, a part of the Midterms!”

The president also realizes Pelosi is speaking to college-educated women who Hillary Clinton could not persuade to vote for her. The Democrats are pretending to champion women, but Trump cut Pelosi off by tweeting, “College educated women want safety, security and healthcare protections – very much along with financial and economic health for themselves and our Country. I supply all of this far better than any Democrat (for decades, actually). That’s why they will be voting for me!”

Americans are getting sick and tired of the Democrats and GOP elite who have stopped Trump from getting the funds needed to build the wall. This caravan of migrants with up to 4,000 people is coming straight for our Southern border. The time is now to show those on the fence that voting for the Democrats will be one huge disaster.
We need to spread this information far and wide and inform all Americans what is at stake. Even though things are looking good for the GOP, the races are tight. Just one seat can mean the majority, one way or the other. We can’t afford for the Democrats to have any control. If that happens, everything the president has done is at risk. He will be at risk with endless investigations, and they will move to impeach. Everyone needs to vote red. Let’s not go back to the horrendous past of the Barack Obama years.
