While meeting with the president of Ukraine at the UN, Trump proclaimed that as far as he was concerned, Nancy Pelosi is no longer the Speaker of the House.
Trump said:
she’s lost her way. She’s been taken over by the radical left. She may be radical left herself, but she really has lost her way. I spoke to her about guns yesterday. She didn’t know what I was talking about. She’s not interested in guns. I’ll tell you what, Nancy Pelosi is not interested in guns and gun protection and gun safety. All she’s thinking about is this. She’s been taken over by the radical left, the whole Democrat Party. And you take a look at what’s happening in the media today, the whole party is taken over by the left. And thank you very much.

My poll numbers have gone up. But I don’t want it to go up for this reason. When they look and when you see what’s happening, people are really angry at Democrats. They’re really angry at the Democrat party. And things like, as an example, drug pricing, getting drugs down, things like gun safety, infrastructure, the Democrats can’t talk about that because they have been taken over by a radical group of people and Nancy Pelosi, as far as I’m concerned, unfortunately, she’s no longer the Speaker of the House.

Nancy Pelosi is still the Speaker of the House. Trump doesn’t get a say in who is Speaker. She will be speaker until at least January 2021. House Democrats have passed several pieces of legislation of guns and gun safety, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell refuses to bring them to the floor for a vote. Democrats rolled out a bill to lower prescription drug prices last week before impeachment started.
Every single thing that Trump said about Pelosi and House Democrats was a lie.
It hasn’t even been a day, and Trump is already losing it over impeachment
