Nancy Pelosi Slams Reporter For Asking She “Hates Donald Trump:” “I Resent You Using The Word Hate!”

Tensions are high on Capitol Hill amid impeachment hearings against the President of the United States. Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, has become the subject of a viral video on social media today regarding the impeachment inquiry. A reporter asked Nancy Pelosi if she hated Donald Trump, and she immediately became flustered – nearly walking off stage. She fired back, making it clear how she feels about the POTUS:

“I don’t hate anybody! I don’t hate anybody in the world! Don’t accuse me- no! You did! I think the President is a coward when it comes to helping kids who are afraid of gun violence. I think he’s cruel when he doesn’t help our Dreamers. I think he’s in denial…however, that’s about the election.”

Wow. Pelosi takes umbrage at a reporter asking her, "do you hate the president?" as she walks away from the podium.

"I don't hate anybody," she says. "This is about the Constitution … as a Catholic, I resent you using the word 'hate' in a sentence that addresses me." pic.twitter.com/sh5DpoccRS

She continued:

“This is about the Constitution and the facts of the President’s violation of his office…as a Catholic, I resent you using the word ‘hate’ in a sentence that addresses me. I don’t hate anyone.”

Nancy Pelosi admitted that she’s requested the House Judiciary Committee to draft articles of impeachment against Donald Trump, meaning that according to the Constitution – the government is officially moving forward with having him removed from office.
