WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump tweeted it as evidence of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's weakness. Pelosi raised it as a banner of strength.
"I think it would be interesting, you tell me, if we could have a recording of what goes on" in such meetings, Pelosi told reporters afterward."We must have been at two different meetings." At some point, she pressed Trump on his plans on Syria. He answered by saying he wants to keep America safe, she said. Then Pelosi batted that down as a goal, not a plan. Trump, she said, did not appreciate her questions and ensuing commentary on the consequences of the pullout for Syria and Russian President Vladimir Putin.The photo shows Pelosi standing, finger pointed at Trump, who is saying something back.
Story continuesPelosi, House Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer and Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer walked out, telling reporters in the driveway that Trump had insulted Pelosi. McCarthy later left the meeting, reporting that Pelosi"stormed out of the meeting," exhibiting"a pattern of behavior." He said,"This is really not ... how a speaker should carry herself."
And when the resolution came and Trump mounted the House lectern to deliver the speech, she cast a special kind of shade on him, smirking as she executed a now-famous sideways clap from above and behind Trump.
