Rebuking his congressional nemeses, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., President Donald Trump said "these bad people" make the U.S. the "toughest country to deal with."
"They said to me, 'What is the toughest country to deal with: Is it China? Could it be North Korea?' and I said, 'No, it's the United States of America the toughest country to deal with,' because we have Schumer and Pelosi and people that are bad people that I honestly believe don't love our country," Trump told host Sean Hannity in a Fox News town hall taped live Thursday in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
"What they do to our country and what they've done with this scam, the whole scam," Trump added, referring to the investigations by Congress during the first three-plus years of his presidency.
