          Dude, it’s a gran talking about her grandkids. That’s happy talk, not politics. It’s just twenty minutes and I have better weed than 44. It’ll be over before you know it. Like, I spent five minutes talking pizza and stupid bicyclists (mostly my brother, we were talking about the same person but I’ll never tell her) with Hillary Clinton after a college commencement and she was delightful. If she had been able to show that side of herself, like, ever in politics, she’d have maybe won elections.

            I wouldn’t want to talk politics with Pelosi. Can go on YouTube and find videos of her dressing people down. She knows her shit and she’s fast.

            I agree re: Clinton. I’d say it’s like that with most politicians. That’s why their constituents keep electing them and everyone else hates their guts. They didn’t get elected without charisma.
