WATCH: Pelosi Got Booed at a Music Festival in NYC, and the Footage is Glorious…

Can you call yourself a politician if you don’t overestimate your popularity?

I always find it funny when it happens. Being able to find little instances of humor in the news is one of the biggest reasons why I continue to subject myself to this dumpster fire on a daily basis…

If I don’t laugh, I’ll cry.

Last night, America’s least favorite grandma made her way on stage at the Global Citizen Festival in NYC. Let’s just say the reception was not of the warm variety…

From Fox News:

Attendees of a music festival in New York City Saturday night appeared to boo House Speaker Nancy Pelosi after she made a surprise appearance at the event.

Pelosi, wearing a white pantsuit with a matching scarf, took to the stage of NYC’s Global Citizen music festival where she was booed by those in the audience, videos on social media appear to show.

After being introduced to the stage by Priyanka Chopra Jonas, an actress who is married to Nick Jonas, Pelosi briefly spoke about carbon pollution and climate change.

“As speaker of the house, I am here to thank you for your dazzling advocacy, entrepreneurial thinking, and determination as global citizens,” she told the crowd, according to the New York Post.

“It’s thanks to your help that the United States recently enacted historic climate legislation, which will be a game changer,” she added, being drowned out by the crowd. “It will slash carbon pollution by 40% by 2030, it will give a historic, an historic $370 billion to fight the climate crisis.”

The California representative can also be heard calling for “better water and air for our children” and “better-paying jobs and lower energy bills for their parents.”

Is showing up here an attempt to make herself look hip and approachable to us young people? If it is, she failed miserably…

It reminds me of this:

I understand that the substance of her commentary was appropriate for the event. After all, Global Citizen’s own website spells it out pretty clearly by saying “defeat poverty, defend the planet, and demand equity.”

While I don’t think people generally appreciate having politics mixed in with their entertainment, this was an exception. Climate change was basically the whole reason everybody was there.

Which makes the reaction to San Fran Gran Nan all the more hilarious. They weren’t booing her politics… they were booing her…

People are sick of things being run by a bunch of geriatric swindlers that have been in office longer than I’ve been alive. I feel like I say we need term limits too often, so I won’t (just be aware that I was thinking it).

I hope more than anything that Dems have totally overestimated their popularity and get whacked in a way that no one’s ever witnessed at the ballot box in November. That’s probably asking too much, but here’s hoping…
