House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is still putting President Trump in the doghouse.

Just two days after slamming “morbidly obese” Trump following his claim that he had been taking the anti-malaria drug hydroxychloroquine to prevent contracting COVID-19, Pelosi further threw the President under the bus when asked Wednesday morning about his tweets stoking a baseless right-wing conspiracy alleging MSNBC host Joe Scarborough of a grave crime.

“You are asking me about the appropriateness of the actions of this President of the United States?” Pelosi said, sounding exasperated. “So completely inappropriate in so many ways that it’s almost a given.”

Pelosi then compared Trump to “a child who comes in with mud on their pants or something” after playing outdoors.

“He comes in with doggy doo on his shoes, and everybody who works with him has that on their shoes, too, for a very long time to come,” Pelosi said.

Pelosi went on to argue that Trump repeatedly says things that are “inappropriate” for a president, such as his remarks on women and that he plays to a “market” for insulting comments.

  1. Thank you. I’m sick and tired of having lowered expectations for elected officials. Working for government at any level should be a respected/respectable profession.

  2. Well played, Madame Speaker, well played.

  3. Her description of him as a child who enters the house with dog doo on his shoes was perfect. She knows how to get into his head and stay there.

  4. Tomorrow at this time:

    Nancy diagnoses Trump’s illness as “choad rage.”

  5. She could have reminded him of the toilet paper on his shoe incident. But this one is right - he’s tracking shit all over OUR house.
