House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday hit back at President Donald Trump for mocking her quarantine stash of ice cream, saying that her vice is less harmful than some of his musings on coronavirus treatments.
Pelosi was blasted by Republicans, and subsequently starred in an attack ad by the Trump campaign, which branded her as an elitist politician insensitive to the plights of those suffering economic devastation because of the virus. Critics pointed out that the segment aired as Democrats were blocking another round of relief funding for small businesses, holding out for Republicans to agree to include money for hospitals.
musing about whether it would be possible to inject disinfectants or light into the body to kill off the virus., causing Trump to later backtrack and claim that he was being sarcastic. The latest spat began when Trump, hosting Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida at the White House on Tuesday, battered House Democrats for reversing course on their plan to reconvene the chamber next week, asserting that the caucus didn’t want to come back to Washington to legislate.
