Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a California Democrat who has been in Congress since the early 1990s, made another unsubstantiated claim about former President Donald Trump just days before the remainder of voters who have yet to cast ballots head to the polls on Tuesday.
In an appearance on far-left MSNBC, Pelosi attempted to make the case that Trump’s mind is deteriorating on the same level that President Joe Biden’s mental capacities have obviously declined. She also claimed that a vote for Trump is really a vote for “horrible” Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), Trump’s running mate.
Ironically, during her interview with Biden’s first press secretary-turned-MSNBC host Jen Psaki, Pelosi herself struggled to answer.
“I think what the ex-president just said is further indication of his cognitive degeneration. You saw recently how he was talking about whether he chose electrocution or being eaten by sharks. Something is very wrong there and indicative also is diminishing the power of the press, which is the guardian of our freedom in our country,” Pelosi claimed, though ‘the media’ is at its lowest approval rating among the public in modern history, according to recent polling.
“So I think people might think about voting for him and have to know that he can’t last as president for four years with his brain deteriorating at the rate it is and it is clearly evident and they may be voting for J. D. Vance, which would be a horrible thing for our country,” Pelosi continued.
