| Description | Perhaps no Democratic politician has been a greater antagonist to Donald Trump than Nancy Pelosi. As the House minority leader and then speaker of the House during Trump’s first term, she participated in two Trump impeachments, memorably ripped up a copy of Trump’s State of the Union address after he delivered it and was targeted by an angry mob during the attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6. Pelosi vowed to never allow Trump back in the White House for another term. By all accounts, she was a key voice in persuading Biden to end his campaign this summer and give another Democrat a shot at beating Trump.
We now know how that turned out. Vice President Kamala Harris suffered a stinging loss in Tuesday’s election. Republicans regained control of the Senate, and while the House has yet to be called for either party, the G.O.P. may very well control that chamber too. Trump made inroads across the country, including in safely blue states like New York and New Jersey. Now he is the president-elect with a sweeping mandate and promises to undo many of Pelosi and the Democrats’ legislative achievements. |
