House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently said that, in the eyes of the US Constitution, she is President Trump’s equal.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently told the New York Times in an interview that, in the eyes of the US Constitution, she is President Trump's equal.  The Times reported in a piece published Wednesday, "Asked if she considers herself Mr. Trump's equal, she replied, 'The Constitution does.' She frowned at the memory of a dinner at the White House last year when men talked over her, and she asked, 'Doesn't anybody listen to a woman in the room?'"  She continued: "Hopefully that will become a thing of the past now that we have so many women in Congress — and with the gavel. The gavel makes a big difference." 
Pelosi was sworn in as the speaker of the House on Thursday.  This is her second time serving in the position, making her "the first person since 1955 to regain the position after losing it," according to Philly.com. Pelosi is also the only woman ever to hold the post.
