The politically-motivated impeachment inquiry has marked a new chapter in a feud between the president and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In the wake of the inquiry, the White House recently informed Pelosi that they won’t be cooperative. The House Speaker didn’t care too much for this and subsequently warned that President Trump will be “held accountable.”
On Friday, the president spent time in Louisiana in order to further his 2020 presidential re-election campaign. During his time with supporters, Trump talked about the impeachment inquiry, its ramifications, and Speaker Pelosi.
Reviewing Trump’s Commentary on Pelosi and the Impeachment Inquiry
When referencing the House Speaker, Trump first began by stating that he used to believe she loved America. The president then noted that he changed his mind after Pelosi’s decision to move forward with the impeachment inquiry.
In Trump’s own words:
“Nervous Nancy, I used to think she loved the country. She hates the country, she wouldn’t be doing this to the country if she did. […] Nancy Pelosi hates the country, hates the United States of America.”
