 Pelosi said before insurrection that she would ‘punch’ Trump if he came to Capitol: footage
by Jared Gans - 10/13/22 9:06 PM ET

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said on the day of the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection that she would “punch [then-President Trump] out” if he came to the Capitol after his rally at the Ellipse.

CNN aired footage taken by filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, the Speaker’s daughter, on “Anderson Cooper 360” on Thursday, showing how multiple congressional leaders reacted to the day’s events.

Footage showed Pelosi remarking to her staff as Trump spoke at the Ellipse rally, which preceded the Capitol riot, that Trump should not come to the Capitol as Congress prepared to certify President Biden’s victory in the 2020 presidential election.

“If he comes, I’m gonna punch him out,” Pelosi said. “I’ve been waiting for this, for trespassing on the Capitol grounds. I’m gonna punch him out, and I’m gonna go to jail and I’m gonna be happy.”

Hey, I know! Let's threaten violence against the President and then see how long it is before the Secret Service and/or FBI break down our front doors! Yay.

I wonder how hard that geriatric hooker can hit.  Lets ask her husband Paulie.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

I remember when Pelosi thought she had a different kind of "shot" at Trump -----
