Nancy Pelosi walked out of the White House today carrying herself like a queen.

On Tuesday afternoon, the House minority leader, along with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., met the president to discuss border funding amid a possible government shutdown.

The conversation soon broke down, with Schumer accusing the president of throwing a “temper tantrum.” Although she was repeatedly interrupted by the president and completely disregarded at times, Pelosi reminded the world of her quiet strength and leadership skills, which she described later by saying, “I was trying to be the mom.”

During the conversation, the president interrupted Pelosi 15 times, according to The Week. At one point, the president even went as far as to say, “It’s not easy for [Pelosi] to talk right now.”

Pelosi coolly shot back, “Please don’t characterize the strength that I bring to this meeting as the leader of the House Democrats, who just won a big victory.”

Of the discussion, Pelosi said, “We came in here in good faith, and we are entering into this kind of a discussion in the public view.”

She then exited the discussion like a boss — and the internet definitely took note.
