How is Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s comment about President Trump that “we’re going to impeach the motherf****r” sitting with the new Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi? Not bad, actually, and she’s basically blaming Trump for the tone in Washington, DC:
I ask Pelosi as she leaves the Capitol for WH mtg on gov't shutdown if she will speak to Dem MI Rep Rashida Tlaib about the language Tlaib used when discussing Trump: Pelosi responds “I’m going to talk the President about his language.”

Pelosi made it clear she believes Trump is the one who has set the mood:

During a MSNBC town hall that will air later this evening, Nancy Pelosi said that she's "not in the censorship business" and that while she "wouldn't use that language" she wouldn't "establish language standards for my colleagues.” https://t.co/NJa0EkAU5H

Except "No worse than Trump" isn't what they have been talking about. Hillary Clinton specifically noted there can only be civility again when Democrats have power. They have power, and yet no civility. https://t.co/M2K6ICnSZ9

So much for Michelle Obama’s claim about Dems:
"When they go low, we go high!"

“When they go low, we go high”…..
…. or some kind of Democratic rhetoric that only applies sometimes.— M Jo (@MJo7979) January 4, 2019
