Nancy Pelosi Calls Trump's Jokes About Brutal Attack On Her Husband 'Sick'
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is horrified that Donald Trump and other Republicans think the savage attack on her husband, Paul Pelosi, is fodder for jokes.
During a Monday appearance on “The View,” the former speaker of the House addressed the traumatic fallout from the assault in October 2022, when a right-wing conspiracy theorist held Pelosi’s husband hostage and brutally beat him with a hammer after breaking into the family’s San Francisco home.
Pelosi told “The View’s” panelists that the attack was devastating, both physically and psychologically, for her family and for the loved ones of any politicians.
“Getting hit on the head three times is a horrible thing. And that was physical,” she said. “But the traumatic effect for him, for us, for the family, but also for other political families as well, to just families in America, violence has no place in any resolution of any discussion you may have.”
The veteran politician also wondered why anyone would make fun of the assault, referring to Trump’s repeated remarks about the incident.
In the last two years, Trump has found multiple ways to mock Paul Pelosi, who was left with a fractured skull and serious injuries to his hands and right arm from the attack.
