House Speaker Nancy Pelosi delivered a strong rebuttal to CNN\u2019s Jake Tapper on Tuesday when he brought up former President Donald Trump\u2019s latest comments about Vice President Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n
During a rally in Savannah, Georgia, earlier that day, Trump had asserted that Harris suffers from \u201cbigger cognitive problems\u201d than President Joe Biden, intensifying his ongoing criticism of the Biden-Harris administration.At the rally, Trump criticized the administration\u2019s management of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, highlighting the deaths of 13 servicemembers and the military equipment left behind. However, it was his comments about Harris that dominated the news.<\/p>\n
Trump claimed that Harris is facing greater cognitive challenges than Biden, who had faced scrutiny over his mental fitness before ending his 2024 campaign following their late June debate on CNN.<\/p>\n
In his interview with Pelosi, Tapper read out Trump\u2019s comments to gauge her reaction. The former House Speaker, however, did not appreciate the line of questioning.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy would you even cover that?! This is a person who\u2019s not on the level,\u201d Pelosi snapped, appearing to struggle to speak herself. \u201cHe is their nominee for President. He is incompetent. Let\u2019s not even talk about the silliness of it all. And the weirdness of it all. And the assault on women that it is. We\u2019re not gonna talk issues.\u201dA group of Fox News focus group voters, most of whom said they were independents, had a big change of heart following the Trump-Biden debate. Ten of the 15 focus group members switched their choice from Biden to Trump after watching the current commander-in-chief struggle mightily on CNN\u2019s stage in Atlanta.<\/p>\n
\u201cCognitive ability \u2026 this is the highest office, and for me, it\u2019s very important that I trust the executive to understand and be cognitively competent,\u201d said one member of the group who changed from supporting Biden to supporting Trump following the debate, Fox News noted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
