"またしても私たちは超党派というおなじみの呼びかけを聞いていますが、それは実際には彼らが私たちに彼らの価値観に従うように要求し、権力を与えるようにする手段に過ぎません。"
— Nancy Pelosi
Simplified Meaning:
When people talk about working together, like between two different political groups, it can sometimes be tricky. They might say they want to cooperate, but really, they might just want you to agree with them and do things their way. For example, imagine two kids, Alex and Sam, deciding on a game to play. Alex suggests they should both agree on a game so everyone is happy. But in reality, Alex just wants Sam to play his favorite game and isn't open to any other ideas. In politics, this can happen too. One group might say they want to find common ground, but they may actually just be pushing for their own agenda and want the other side to follow their rules. To avoid this in real life, it's important to really listen and make sure both sides are genuinely trying to understand each other and find a fair solution, rather than just trying to win.
