CNN’s Jake Tapper reported that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Donald Trump spoke on the phone for 12 minutes last week about how he’s “scaring” children everywhere.
Well, you can’t make this stuff up.
The topic of discussion during the phone meeting was Immigration and Customs Enforcement deportation raids.
“When I spoke to the President, I said ‘Look, I’m a mom, I have five kids, seven, nine grandchildren and children are scared,'” Pelosi said at an event in New York hosted by Democratic Rep. Grace Meng. “You’re scaring the children of America, not just in those families but their neighbors and their communities. You’re scaring the children.”
The conversation occurred at 7:20 p.m. ET Friday night. One day later, Trump announced that he’s delaying the raids for two weeks. The raids were supposed to have occurred throughout 10 major U.S. cities.
“I mean it’s so appalling,” Pelosi said Monday, recalling when she first heard about the planned raids. “It’s outside the circle of civilized human behavior, to just be kicking down doors, splitting up families and the rest of that.”
Move over, Donald. There’s a bigger ball buster in town and her name is Nancy.
