“Morning Joe” co-host Mika Brzezinski asked Pelosi about Trump’s interview with Fox News’ Chris Wallace and said the president did not say one way or the other if he would leave. (Breitbart)Never mind that he hasn’t even been defeated yet!

“The fact is whether he knows it yet or not, he will be leaving,” Pelosi told Brzezinski. “Just because he might not want to move out of the White House doesn’t mean we won’t have an inauguration ceremony to inauguration a duly elected President of the United States. And you know, I’m second in line to the presidency just last week I had my regular continuation of government briefing. This might interest you because I say to them, this is never going to happen, God willing it never will, but there is a process. It has nothing to do with the certain occupant of the White House doesn’t feel like moving and has to be fumigated out of there because the presidency is the presidency. (Breitbart) “It’s not geography or location so, so much for him. I wouldn’t spend so much time on it that’s a victory for him because then we’re not talking about your first, more important subject, which is, what are we going to do to stop this vicious virus that is making an assault on our health, again, our lives, our livelihood and life of our democracy.”Pelosi can’t count. The presidency lineup is as follows: president, vice president and speaker of the house—which would make her third, not second in line. “Just because he might not want to move out of the White House doesn’t mean we won’t have an inauguration ceremony to inauguration a duly elected President of the United States.” President Trump was duly elected by 63 million voters, and a one million strong Washington Women’ March followed one day after his inauguration. Why would Joe Biden be hypothetically more “duly elected” than was Donald Trump? Pelosi wants everyone other than herself to quit speculating about the realities of the 2020 election outcome— but wants all hands on deck “to stop this vicious virus that is making an assault on our health, again, our lives, our livelihood and life of our democracy.” In her delusions of grandeur of “being second in line” for the presidency, she’s a walking television caricature for Johnson & Johnson bug spray Raid that “kills all the bugs that bug you”. In her case, President Donald Trump. Meantime, Pelosi should calm down and wait for Election Day, just like the rest of us are doing .
