Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is making it clear that she doesn’t think failed former president Donald Trump isn’t much of a man and has “no courage” at all.
Speaking with MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Tuesday, Pelosi referenced her threat to punch Trump if he dared to show up at the Capitol on January 6, 2021:
“He wouldn’t have had to courage to come to the Hill, He’s all talk.”
Footage from the Jan. 6 House Select Committee revealed Pelosi’s anger at Trump on the day the Capitol was under siege, HuffPost notes:
“I hope he comes. I’m going to punch him out. I’ve been waiting for this. For trespassing on the Capitol grounds. I’m going to punch him out. And I’m going to go to jail and I’m going to be happy.”
In response, Trump labeled Pelosi a “despicable person.”
The Speaker also told Mitchell that while she isn’t fond of having to talk about Trump, she feels a need to let the American people know what the GOP has planned if they retake control of Congress and Trump runs again in 2024:
“Our democracy is at stake when you define democracy as integrity of the vote. They want to suppress the vote. They’ve been doing that for a long time. They want to nullify the results of an election. They’re even proposing that after an election, if they don’t like the results, they will change the rules that would have governed that election retroactively. So you have to recognize that they are undermining our democracy.”
Will Trump run in 2024? Not everyone is convinced he will.
The disgraced ex-president’s former attorney, Michael Cohen, says the Donald can’t stand the thought of being a two-time loser and is making too much money from not running:
“Trump has a real problem with being called a loser. There’s something inside of him possibly because he knows that he is cannot stomach being a two-time loser. He has an incredibly fragile ego. To become a two-time loser would just destroy him. So, I do not, and I’ve always stated the same, I do not believe he’s going to run.”
