Representative Nancy Pelosi criticized the Republican Party on MSNBC, calling it a “cult to a thug” under former President Donald Trump.
Pelosi expressed concern for insecure voters who support Trump and urged for intervention from his family and the GOP.
She emphasized the importance of not whitewashing events like January 6 and highlighted the need to protect the values of the country and the sacrifices of those who fought for freedom.
“I do wish there would be an intervention from his family, assuming they loved him, that they would intervene, that the Republican Party would have an intervention, they have become a cult to a thug,” Pelosi said.
She added, “That is really a tragedy for Grand Old Party and what they were. So going into insecurities, really, you know, the insecurities I’m concerned about are some of the voters out there who fall for his line. But I’m here tonight to say to you on this day, when he tried to return to the scene of the crime, he didn’t dare come to the Capitol, as he didn’t dare come to the Capitol on January 6.”
Pelosi added, “We cannot let this be whitewashed, this is a disservice to our Founders, the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform who have fought for our freedom that he wants to dismantle and the aspirations of our children to live in this great country.”
