Nancy Pelosi has publicly criticized Donald Trump in recent interviews, describing him in strong terms and outlining concerns about his adherence to constitutional norms and the functioning of key institutions. In multiple outlets, she characterized him as "the worst thing on the face of the Earth" and referred to him as a "vile creature" during conversations about his actions as president, including his treatment of the Constitution, the Supreme Court, the House, the press, and immigrants legally in the country. These remarks were made in the context of discussions about his behavior and governance, and they generated substantial media and political reaction across the spectrum.
