Nancy Pelosi Can’t Name the Leader of the Democratic Party

Nancy Pelosi Can’t Name The Leader Of The Democratic Party (America Rising)

Yesterday, a Harvard-Harris poll showed the full scope of the Democratic leadership vacuum. A plurality of people said “no one” was currently leading the party, while two of the politicians who received large percentages were Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, both retired.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi was asked by Anderson Cooper who the leader of the Democratic Party was.
