Former President Donald Trump commented on the recent attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband Paul at his San Francisco home by a hammer-wielding maniac; he says “it’s a terrible thing.”
“With Paul Pelosi, that’s a terrible thing, and with all of them, that’s a terrible thing,” Trump said in an interview with the conservative Spanish-language network Americano Media.
“Look at what happened to San Francisco generally. Look at what’s happening in Chicago. It was far worse than Afghanistan,” he said.
According to The New York Post, “Trump was asked about the incident involving Pelosi in the greater context of rising crime rates across the US during Friday’s interview at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.”
“These people are crazy,” the ex-president said, referring to Illinois lawmakers who passed a controversial law last year abolishing cash bail, which goes into effect next year. “They’re gonna release stone-cold killers from jails, nobody knows why. I mean, they need room, or something.”
