House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Donald Trump have not spoken in more than five months. While left-leaning articles highlight Pelosi’s dismissal of Trump’s criticism towards the next phase of emergency coronavirus legislation, right-leaning articles highlight that Trump called Pelosi’s establishment of a new coronavirus committee a “big waste.”
A left-leaning article by The Washington Post reports that Pelosi called criticism from President Trump and senior congressional Republicans “chicken feed,” stating that the next phase of emergency legislation for the coronavirus pandemic would be “big” and have bipartisan support. The article also reports that the White House released a letter from the president to Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer, mocking the senator for being “missing in action.”
The Associated Press published a centrist article highlighting that the relationship between Trump and Pelosi appears beyond repair after the president’s impeachment and that even the COVID-19 pandemic has done nothing to thaw the ice between the two. Although Trump and Pelosi have communicated at each other through Twitter, television and intermediaries, when Trump signed the coronavirus rescue package at the White House, he didn’t invite Pelosi to join him.
The Daily Caller published a right-leaning article highlighting that Trump called Pelosi’s decision to establish a House select committee to examine the Trump administration’s success and failures in combating the COVID-19 pandemic, a “big waste of vital resources, time, attention.” Trump also called the committee a “witch hunt.”
