After four decades in public life, Nancy Pelosi is finally calling it quits. And let’s be honest — it’s long overdue. The Founders never intended for elected office to become a lifelong career or a personal fiefdom, yet Pelosi turned politics into a family business and a power dynasty. That, of course, is a conversation for another day.
What matters now is that the longtime Democrat powerbroker — who spent years lecturing America while presiding over one of the most divided and dysfunctional Congresses in modern history — is stepping off the stage. And President Trump’s response this morning? Absolutely perfect.
“The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country… I’m very honored she impeached me twice and failed miserably twice. Nancy Pelosi is a highly overrated politician,” Trump said.
Fox News’ Peter Doocy broke the story:
Trump just texted Fox to react to Pelosi’s retirement:

That’s classic Trump — sharp, instinctive, and perfectly timed. While Pelosi was a thorn in his side for years, you’ve got to admit: the woman knew how to wield power. There’s no harm in tipping your hat to a worthy adversary once in a while.
Pelosi’s political instincts were lethal. She wasn’t even in Democratic leadership anymore, yet she managed to bring down the Biden presidency in under a month. Think about that — a retired Speaker, running circles around the sitting president’s entire political operation. It exposed just how weak and chaotic the Biden White House really was.
Pelosi made no secret of her disdain for Biden’s inner circle, dismissing them as amateurs — and she proved it. Her behind-the-scenes maneuvering helped push Biden off the 2024 ticket, effectively ending his political career. The result? A total collapse in their once-friendly relationship.
In the end, Pelosi reminded everyone why she remained the Democrats’ most formidable operator — even in “retirement.” Oddly, by booting Joe and giving us Kamala, she secured a win for the president she tried to impeach. Hilarious irony.
