Trump calls Pelosi ‘nasty, vindictive, horrible person’ in response to ‘prison’ comment
Ahead of his D-Day speech in Normandy, France, on Thursday, Donald Trump sat down with Laura Ingraham. During their conversation, the president reacted to reports that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she’d rather see him in prison than see him impeached. This allegedly came as Pelosi clashed with Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler over possible impeachment proceedings. Trump responded by calling Pelosi a “disgrace.”
“I actually don’t think she’s a talented person,” he said. “I’ve tried to be nice to her because I would have liked to have gotten some deals done. She’s incapable of doing deals. She’s a nasty, vindictive, horrible person.”
Trump also went after her congressional district.
“Ask Nancy, why is her district a drug needles all over the place?” Trump asked. “It’s the most disgusting thing what she’s allowed to happen to her district, with needles, with drug addicts, with people living in the middle of the streets, with people living in the sidewalk. You can’t go … She ought to focus on that because she’s a disaster.”
And because Trump already had Pelosi on his mind, he transitioned to taking shots at Chuck Schumer too.
While speaking about members of Congress opposed to possible tariffs against Mexico, including many Republicans, Trump said, “But we have Pelosi. We have cryin’ Chuck Schumer, who’s a disaster by the way. He’s a total political jerk.”
The Ingraham Angle airs weeknights at 10 p.m. on Fox News Channel.
