Friday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,†House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump ‘s “language†about women gave Rep. Ted Yoho (R-FL) “license†to have a confrontation with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) earlier in the week.
When asked about Trump, ‘Suburban Housewives of America,’ tweet, Pelosi said, “It sounds like condescension and disrespect, is what it does, and it also sounds like discrimination and fear baiting. He’s just fearmongering. It’s just a ball of his tricks that he does all the time, bigotry, fearmongering, condescension, and distortion. But you know what? American women are smarter than that. Again, the “housewives†part was interesting. I loved being a housewife when I was a housewife, but I had other things as well, and I had judgment. It’s sort of in the same vein of Mr. Yoho, and I’m proud of Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez, as a grandmother of two young granddaughters and a mother of four during the course, I’m saying, you go, congresswoman. It’s the same condescension and disrespect.â€
Mitchell said, “I wanted to play a little bit of her very impactful speech yesterday. Let’s watch.â€
Ocasio-Cortez said, “What I believe is that having a daughter does not make a man decent. Having a wife does not make a decent man. Treating people with dignity and respect makes a decent man. And when a decent man messes up, as we all are bound to do, he tries his best and does apologize — not to save face, not to win a vote.â€
