Wade decision and the January 6 riots.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>During an <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/SVMONCDhxFI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">appearance<\/a> on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last night, Pelosi displayed optimism that could be easily interpreted as delusionment.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi, 82, predictably made a dig at Donald Trump, suggesting the show should bleep out his name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe that we will hold the House,\u201d Pelosi said to applause.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will hold the House by winning more seats. We won the 40 seats, then we lost some when Trump was on the ballot, we lost some on the Trump districts, but we held enough seats to hold the House with him on the ballot. He\u2019s not on the ballot now,\u201d the Speaker added.<\/p>\n<p>After mentioning Trump, Pelosi apologized for uttering his name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, did I say his name? I didn\u2019t mean to,\u201d Pelosi said.<\/p>\n<p>Colbert retorted: \u201cWe\u2019ll have the videotapes fumigated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi replied: \u201cPerhaps you can bleep that out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The seemingly deluded House Speaker then explained why she believes Democrats would perform well in the November 8 midterms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe greatest influx of candidates came forward [after January 6], young people, people of color, people of different generations, different backgrounds, and the rest,\u201d Pelosi said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe beautiful diversity of America came forward. They didn\u2019t pay attention to those pundits who said, \u2018You can\u2019t win,&#8217;\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Roe v. Wade came down, boom, we were totally ready. And that just caused a whole different attitude on the part of some about whether we could win,\u201d Pelosi continued.<\/p>\n<p>Colbert then noted how the polls suggested the race for the House was very tight and a huge Democrat win in the midterms wasn\u2019t on the cards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailyfetched.com\/pelosi-warned-being-booed-in-nyc-is-just-a-taste-of-whats-to-come-in-november\/\">Pelosi Being Booed in NYC is Just a Taste of What\u2019s to Come in November<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pelosi jumped in, declaring Joe Biden is a \u201cgreat president,\u201d praising the \u201cremarkable\u201d job he has done in office \u2013 believing it will help her party gain seats.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorking together, we\u2019ve accomplished so much. And that is beginning to have some appreciation\u2026 The president has done a remarkable job, and we have been proud,\u201d Pelosi said.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi\u2019s remarks come days after former Clinton advisor James Carville <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailyfetched.com\/carville-predicts-trump-wont-run-in-2024-liz-cheney-will-become-house-speaker\/\">predicted <\/a>that Liz Cheney would become Speaker of the House.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe second prediction is, the next Speaker of the House is \u2014 drumroll, please \u2014 Liz Cheney,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a very possible outcome that the Republicans win the House by three seats,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cY\u2019all have got to remember something: The entire House elects the Speaker.
