Nancy Pelosi

Well, let me clarify what we're saying here. First of all, in answer to that question, no. What happened was— He came in and was very disrespectful of the Congress. And he talked politics. This is about policy. It's about governance. So on the first page, I thought, oh, he's not telling the truth there. So I make a notch wherever he wasn't, a tear.

The next page, the next page, the next page, the next page. So I would make a tear every place that I thought he was not telling the truth.

The next page, the next page, the next page, the next page. So I would make a tear every place that I thought he was not telling the truth.

And so I realized as we were getting into the speech that it was every page. It was every page. It was horrible. It was a manifesto of misrepresentations in my view. So at the end, I thought, I have to tear this up now. I thought my staff never—we've never discussed it under any circumstance. This is a completely different thing. So I thought they're really going to be—

So I thought they're really going to be—

because I haven't discussed this with anybody like that. I didn't even plan it until he gave this horrible speech. But I have received, of all the things, in terms of passing affordable care, all kinds of proud legislation that we have passed to make a difference in people's lives, more people talk about tearing up the speech or pointing to him in the room or walking out of the White House.

More people, they said, you took the words right out of my mouth when you tore up that speech. I mean, all over the world. Yeah, I know. When I've traveled all over the world, people will be like this. Really?

He did not respect. Now, getting back to your point, though, about... instinct and all of that. What I do talk about in my book, and I want women to take real pride in for themselves, is that Women have an intuition. We used to call it women's intuition way back when in the day. But there's an intuition.

Never was. Never was, never will be. So when you're a member of Congress, you act in a deductive way. You have hearings. You have public comment. So when you're there to go vote, it's not like you have to vote in a minute. You've had time. to absorb and learn and exchange ideas and this or that, or just be further reinforced in your point of view in terms of your vision and your values. Yes.

But when you're an executive, for example, a speaker is an executive, right? Some things happen that are not about a vote on the floor. They're just something that happens that requires action right away. If you're the president, the governor, the speaker, the mayor, you have to act right away. So you have to be prepared. You have to have knowledge.

So when something happens, your intuition, say, trust your gut. Don't trust your gut unless your gut has knowledge, has strategy, has values, knows what it wants to do. Be prepared. Be prepared and act. Intuitively, not deductively, intuitively. And the reason that's important is because, Julia, if you were going to make a decision, you thought, well, maybe this, maybe that.

All the other people will exercise their how to promote their own agenda. And pretty soon your idea is greatly diminished. If they know you're going to act right. They'll respect that. And nine times out of ten, because you know the subject, you know the strategy, you know the path, nine times out of ten, you'll be fine, and that's a good average. That's a really good average.

Yeah. You make your decision happen.
