House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) appeared annoyed during her weekly briefing Thursday when a reporter asked her a question about the Democrats’ strategy in Republican states for the upcoming 2018 election cycle.
“You want to talk politics?” Pelosi asked. “Right here under the dome of the Capitol of the United States, you want to talk politics? Well, we can do that for a small percentage of the meeting, so I’m happy to do that.”
Pelosi went on to talk about the Democrats’ strategy to take back the House in 2006 and how they had to start strategizing right after they lost the 2004 election by developing a positive message and listening to constituents.
She later talked about the upcoming election next year and how the party needs to make sure that candidates are representatives of their districts.
