Pelosi, taking on a president, meets feminists’ desire for a superhero by lisabelkin
The meme was everywhere. It showed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi looking like a winner, cigarette in one hand, cocktail in the other, rocking a gold-flecked chiffon gown and surrounded by shining gold statuettes.
Some envision Pelosi all but wearing a cape and taking on a man who has shown more than a little disrespect to women in his personal life. She has been celebrated for this before –sarcastically slow-clapping Trump at his State of the Union speech or tapping her shades into place while exiting the White House after a showdown with Trump over the border wall, chastising the president for having a “temper tantrum”, one of the many times she treated him like a flailing toddler.
Story continuesTo some, in turn, such criticism itself — that Pelosi dithered and delayed — is a form of sexism. “The way it was talked about, the will she or won’t she, the accusations of dragging her feet, would they have talked about it that way if she were a man?” asks Joanne Bamberger, an author and political commentator whose focus is women in politics.
