'So much for sad, solemn and prayerful': Nancy Pelosi says Dems have a 'spring in their step' after impeachment vote

As we told you earlier, Nancy Pelosi made it clear at her press conference that she did not want to talk about the next step in the impeachment process. However, Pelosi did open her press conference with brief remarks about the impeachment vote:

That doesn’t really match up to previous claims from Democrats:

It’s a very prayerful and solemn spring, though. The saddest spring. https://t.co/EAuHh2LyaJ

There was such a spring in Dem steps on Capitol Hill that Pelosi was eager to change the subject:

"Also can we please talk about anything else?"

It was such a solemn and prayerful event that Pelosi had to hush Dems from cheering after announcing the result of the impeachment vote.
