Pelosi says she gave Trump ‘a dose of his own medicine’ with weight comments

Pelosi said Monday that it was “not a good idea” to take the controversial drug because it can pose a risk for people with heart conditions and he is „morbidly obese.”

Trump reacted angrily to Pelosi’s swipe at this weight, calling her a “sick woman” with „a lot of mental problems” — the latest chapter in their yearslong feud, which has, at times, degenerated into trading personal barbs.

Pelosi on Wednesday defended her choice of words, noting that Trump himself has made similar comments — which he “passes off as humor” — about women’s weight throughout his career.

“I said, he’s our president, we don’t want our president taking something that could be dangerous, as the scientists have said,” Pelosi said. “If he takes offense at that, well, I could take offense at a lot of things, but they don’t mean that much to me.”
