House Speaker Nancy Pelosi delivered a strong rebuttal to CNN’s Jake Tapper on Tuesday when he brought up former President Donald Trump’s latest comments about Vice President Kamala Harris.

During a rally in Savannah, Georgia, earlier that day, Trump had asserted that Harris suffers from “bigger cognitive problems” than President Joe Biden,

intensifying his ongoing criticism of the Biden-Harris administration.At the rally, Trump criticized the administration’s 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.

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.

In his interview with Pelosi, Tapper read out Trump’s comments to gauge her reaction. The former House Speaker, however, did not appreciate the line of questioning.

“Why would you even cover that?! This is a person who’s not on the level,” Pelosi snapped, appearing to struggle to speak herself. “He is their nominee for President.

He is incompetent. Let’s not even talk about the silliness of it all. And the weirdness of it all. And the assault on women that it is. We’re not gonna talk issues.”A 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’s stage in Atlanta.

“Cognitive ability … this is the highest office, and for me, it’s very important that I trust the executive to understand and be cognitively competent,” said one member of the group who changed from supporting Biden to supporting Trump following the debate, Fox News noted.
