Fox News reports:
Speaking on “Fox & Friends” on Monday, President Trump called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comments “a disgrace,” referring to her claims that he had denied the seriousness of the coronavirus outbreak and delayed ramping up the federal government’s response, which she called a “deadly” mistake.
“It’s a sad thing,” Trump said on Monday. “She’s a sick puppy in my opinion. She really is. She’s got a lot of problems and that’s a horrible thing to say especially when I stopped some very, very infected, very, very sick people, thousands coming in from China, long earlier than anybody thought, including the experts, nobody thought we should do it, except me and I stopped everybody.”
“We stopped it cold. It had never been done before in the history of our country and Dr. Fauci said the other day, if those people came in, if I didn’t do that, you would have had deaths like you would have never seen before, and she doesn’t mention that.”
Trump just responded to @SpeakerPelosi‘s claim that his “denial was deadly”, accusing him of not taking #Coronavirus seriously for weeks:
“She’s a sick puppy…that’s a terrible thing to say.”
Trump added, “My poll numbers are the highest they’ve ever been because of her.”
