Pelosi knows what Trump is doing -  forcing an extremist / "socialist" narrative onto the Dems  - and in today's presser (during the noon hour PST) she refused to answer questtions about Trump's strategy choosing rather to simply ignoring Trump and questions about his tweets and verbage.    Instead,  she talked about what the House was doing in terms of legislation. 

As it turns out,  there is little Pelosi can do to regain the narrative with a "head in the sand" approach  but to try a legislative attack.  Problem:   as long as the GOP owns the Senate,  her legislative agenda must meet with compromise in the Republican Senate before it becomes law.   This compromise (they call it "reconciliation")  insures that the GOP and Trump will share in the Pelosi strategy  and will be claimed as feather in Trump's warbonnet. 

Worse yet,  she waited to have this fight for the national narrative after two and half yearts of doing nothing but "resist."  
While she and Democrat leadership was busy investing in a failed strategy designed to rid the White House of the "impostor President,"  Trump was wide awake and platting for the 2020 campaign.   Today,  just three months (factoring in all congressional vacation time) before the 2020 campaign season begins,  Pelosi realizes she has nothing in terms of legislative achievements.

So beit.  End of the discussion   . . . . . . . .   for the Dems.
