Democratic Leader Accuses GOP of Enabling White House Mayhem

House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi has accused congressional Republicans of enabling what she calls "the mayhem" at the White House. In her first public comments since the New York Times published an anonymous op-ed by a senior administration official criticizing the president's personal conduct in office. She also said that the president's response to the op-ed on Twitter, where he said "Treason?' was a "manifestation of his instability." She also joked about Vice President Pence being the author of the piece, but added that her party remains focused on the issues that matter to the voters ahead of the November midterms. close
