House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is not holding back when it comes to how she feels about President Donald Trump as he leaves the White House.
Speaking with MSNBCâs Joy Reid, during an interview that aired on Tuesday, the House speaker bluntly said, âDonald Trump was a stain on our country.â
âI donât think we could have sustained our democracy if he had two terms in office, for what he was doing to our institutions, or for what he was doing to our Constitution,â she continued. âHe dishonored it.â
She added:
âHe, in every respect, was unworthy to be president. Did not respect the office that held, and certainly, did not respect the office the rest of us hold as well.â
Pelosi then said that she respected the office of the presidency more than Trump did.
