President Trump stated Thursday he was glad former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was retiring from Congress on the finish of her time period, deriding her as an “evil woman.”
“I think she’s an evil woman. I’m glad she’s retiring. I think she did the country a great service by retiring,” Trump advised reporters within the Oval Workplace when requested for his response to the California Democrat’s announcement she is ending her decades-long storied profession.
“I think she was a tremendous liability for the country,” Trump continued. “I thought she was an evil woman who did a poor job who cost the country a lot in damages and in reputation. I thought she was terrible.”
