House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi on Friday endorsed a call to censure President Donald Trump for his response to last weekend's violent white supremacist march in Charlottesville, Virginia.

"The President’s repulsive defense of white supremacists demands that Congress act to defend our American values," she said in a statement.

Pelosi noted that Democratic Reps. Jerry Nadler of New York, Bonnie Watson Coleman of New Jersey and Pramila Jayapal of Washington have introduced a censure resolution and added, "Every day, the President gives us further evidence of why such a censure is necessary."

At least 79 Democratic colleagues have signed on to the measure, the three lawmakers said Friday.

When will anyone ever "censure" Nancy Pelosi? For anything? Ever?


It doesn't really matter. Pelosi is what? She's like 150 years old.


How much longer can she possibly last?
