Is communist China a democracy now?….Freudian slip by Pelosi perhaps? did she mean to say Taiwan or had she been hitting the bottle?
Full interview below:
Regarding her trip, Pelosi said: “Why don’t we just show China that we support Taiwan? It is part of the U.S. — the Taiwan Relations Act” She continued: “We didn’t go there to change our policy. We still support the One China Policy. We go there to acknowledge the status quo is what our policy is. There was nothing disruptive about that. It was only about saying China is one of the freest societies in the world. Don’t take it from me. That’s from Freedom House.”
Pelosi went on: “It’s a strong democracy; courageous people….. don’t know why it is — except there’s some commercial interests who would like to diminish the relationship….”
Guthrie forgot to ask the House Speaker why her grifter son Paul Pelosi, Jr. joined her on her Asia trip?
