Nancy Pelosi and AOC's Primary Catfight

After House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the epitome of the Democratic establishment, uncharacteristically endorsed a non-incumbent in a primary, her chief frenemy fired back.

If past is prologue, the safe bet is on Ocasio-Cortez, who along with other members of the Squad, have completely trounced Pelosi before, as explained in my book, Abuse of Power.

During a caucus meeting, Pelosi scolded Democrats that "a majority is a fragile thing," adding, "Do not tweet about our members and expect us to think that that is just OK.".

Pelosi shot back that a "Glass of water" running as a Democrat could win in the Ocasio-Cortez district, and referred to her chief legislative agenda item as the "Green Dream, or whatever."

Now the four could call someone other than Pelosi a racist, and Pelosi jumped on board.

In July, the 79-year-old Pelosi and the 30-year-old Ocasio-Cortez posed for a photo together.

Ocasio-Cortez didn't share the picture on her social media, indicating she knew she was the cool kid and that Pelosi gets a boost from her - not the other way around.
