A self-described “nasty” Nancy Pelosi congratulated Hillary Clinton for her performance at last night’s final presidential debate.
“From one #NastyWoman to another, you were an inspiration last night,” she tweeted.

Donald Trump interrupted Clinton during Wednesday’s debate to call her a “nasty woman,” and social media users quickly reclaimed the insult as a message of female empowerment.
Trump had said earlier at the Las Vegas event that “nobody has more respect for women than I do. Nobody,” to laughter from the debate audience.
