House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Sunday tore into Donald Trump and Georgia representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), taunting the former president by claiming he’s ‘”not man enough” to testify under oath before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol.
Asked to comment on Taylor Greene’s assertion that she will be given more power if House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) replaces her as Speaker, Pelosi ignored the QAnon congresswoman, only once referring to her as “What’s her name” while saying that believes Democrats will keep control of the chamber.
“There’s reason to be scared when you hear that. But the fact is, is that we fully intend to win. We have had far superior candidates, our nominees for challenges. Our incumbents are far superior to better candidates, well organized on the ground, owning the ground with our mobilization, clear with our message into these districts,” Pelosi said.
Pelosi added, however, that “we should be very wary of them walking away from our support for democracy and I wanted to bring that up because that is more salience than anything that what’s-her-name wants to say.”

She then laughed at the prospect that Donald Trump will appear before the committee after it issued a subpoena on Friday.
“I don’t think he is man enough to show up,” Pelosi told host Jonathan Capehart. “I don’t think that his lawyers will want him to show up, because he has to testify under oath. But I don’t think he is man enough, –we will see if he is man enough to show up and the public can make their judgment.”
“No one is above the law!” she added. “If we believe that, then they should make a judgment about how he responds to that request.”
