When one is briskly searching for a word, and only one word, to describe the Democrats, one word that might be a decent candidate would be “gaffe”.
Now, it’s undeniable that while the chief gaffe machine within the Democratic party, and indeed in American politics would be the President, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi must not be far behind.
There is at least one story a week illuminated the insanity of the House Speaker. Well, this is another one.
Now, it is being reported by Breitbart that:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is getting heat for speaking about her “connection” with China during a visit to the Indo-Pacific where she stopped in Taiwan, Fox News reported Saturday.
“When I was a little girl, I was told at the beach if I dug a hole deep enough, we would reach China, so we’ve always felt a connection there,” Pelosi commented.
The people that led the charge of outrage at these comments was, of all people, Clay Travis of Outkick.com. It was further reported that:
Outkick’s Clay Travis shared the clip on social media, writing, “We are truly led by imbeciles.”

Travis’s followers were quick to respond to the video, one person writing, “As a little boy I felt a connection with London and France because I saw someone’s underpants.”
“Hard to believe she said that in public. Embarrassing!” another wrote, while someone else replied, “You can’t make this stuff up totally amazing.”
Pelosi arrived in Taiwan on Tuesday, despite the Biden administration’s and China’s warnings not to visit, Breitbart News reported.
It was the first time in 25 years a U.S. official of her rank journeyed to Taiwan, the outlet continued:
The Biden administration opposed her trip out of fear it would further destabilize the U.S. relationship with China at a time when the U.S. is suffering from high prices of goods, supply-chain disruptions, and pursuing a green energy agenda, all of which the administration hopes it can work with China on as midterm elections loom.
Pelosi first planned to take the trip in April but postponed it after contracting Chinese coronavirus – a disease the Taiwanese government attempted to alert the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) about in December 2019 but was ignored.
The trip sparked fury from Beijing, which warned of consequences. Chinese propagandist Hu Xijin threatened that China could shoot down her plane in a tweet, which he later deleted after Twitter locked his account.
In addition, Republicans encouraged her to make the trip and “not back down to Biden or allow Beijing to veto the travel of American officials,” the outlet said.
So, Pelosi has another gem that she can add to her trophy case. Now it can rest alongside her and her husband’s stock trading patterns which is prompting Democrats to introduce legislation aimed at banning members of congress from trading in stocks.
Speaking of her husband, Paul Pelosi has recently been licking his wounds following a fairly public DUI arrest. One would think they would have been able to get a driver. Calls of corruption are getting louder as well.
Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green argues that Pelosi should be in jail on the fact that Pelosi failed to secure the Capitol on January 6th. Additionally, Tulsi Gabbard, who lets not forget is a Democrat, accused Pelosi of “blatant corruption”.
This charge was a call back to the aforementioned stock trading issues. We will have to see what happen next and The Raging Patriot will be there to report.
