Watching a banjo player absolutely demolish Pelosi on politics and hypocrisy was a real treat. Way to tee yourself up, Nancy!

[chillonfunsmart]

She should be arrested for insider trading. She is not someone deserving of political recognition

[panamareg]

This is a perfect example of why our country is falling apart.

[williammorris]

It proves the working class has no representation

[genYprogressive]

Pelosi, Hoyer and Clyburn cannot retire from politics fast enough.

[jdkrxw]

The biggest threat to democracy is representation that never changes. Term limits would solve ALL of this -- right Nancy?

[joylynne]

No American should want illegal immigration. Why don’t you make a distinction between illegal and legal immigration.

[jackthisout]

It's a threat to democrats. She almost had it right.

[OhSnap-kbvr]

She is one of several of the out of touch and dead weight we know as a 'congressman/woman for life'. THAT is a threat to Democracy! If she truly believes what she says why isnt she retired already? 🤔

[lilduckyprime]

She is still trying to use the Trump as a racist card

[bbbanks]

Boy she can sure spew a lot of garbage. That she is not embarrassed by her own BS is truly something.

[victoriaman]

If you keep telling the populace that what they want is not the correct opinion and ignore them and then when they revolt you call them extremist then you are not a representative but a ruler.

[MelissaHodgson-pi]

Brianna's problem is that she truly believes that conservatives that don't live in big cities have a bigoted portion to them and that's just not true.
She really needs to get out more.

[rhondacaron]

Maybe YOU should interview people from 'the working class' and let THEM tell you what they think, instead of assuming YOU know what they think.

[dogboy]

Imagine saying the will of the people is a "threat to democracy" & not being laughed off the stage.

[yearzero]

The reason the elites were ok to Bernie is bc he posed no threat to them, and he proved them right by falling in line.

[mdelaubergine]

What on Earth would Nancy Pelosi know about democracy?

[clintinaustin]

Bri lamenting working class isn’t invited to the discussion is rich cause she herself is a children of academics, not working class.

[goobah]

Why is she not in jail for insider trading????

[silverandrews]

That was such a good debate. The Mumford and sons guy torched her. Didn’t realize he is literally brilliant. Being in a band did not give him the stage he deserves. He exposed her better than many can and Winston 100% had my support.
