Who?
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — Speaker Emerita
Background:
After a handful of Democratic veterans in Congress released a video telling service members to refuse unlawful orders from their superiors, President Donald Trump tweeted, “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”
Ask a Pol asks:*
President Trump even disregards the attack on your husband.
*the best questions rarely end with a question mark. - Prof. Laslo
Key Pelosi:
“Yeah, and he made a joke of it, as did [Charlie] Kirk, by the way,” Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi exclusively tells www.AskaPolPolitics.com*
Like, how painful is that? Or are you just steel?
“It’s painful,” Pelosi tells us. “No, it’s painful. And I’m steel, but my grandchildren, my children are not steel. It’s a traumatic effect of his cruelty, is what it is.”
