Speaker Nancy Pelosi called House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy 'such a moron' when asked about his criticism of the new mask mandate in the House.

for vaccinated people to wear masks indoors in where transmission is high or substantial, as well as recommending universal masking in schools.House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy holds a news conference at the Capitol in Washington, July 27, 2021.

"Today, the Speaker who didn't know her own science, and said names to people, broke her own rules. Twice today, I saw the speaker in a crowded room without a mask. Less than 24 hours after imposing a mask mandate," he said. Republicans derailed the House floor schedule twice earlier on Wednesday, by forcing procedural votes protesting the new requirements.

When asked if he had been vaccinated, he said,"I don't answer that question because it's no one's business." Asked about his colleague Rep. Clay Higgins, R-La., who was hospitalized despite believing he already had COVID, he said,"The reality is that people are going to make their own decisions." Among the Republicans bristling at the return of the mask mandate on Wednesday was longtime opponent Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., who was seen throwing a mask back at a House staffer who offered her one.

If the shoe fits wear it!

Deliberate “moronic” attitude; sucking up to individuals he needs to try & win Speaker position in Fall of ‘22. Calculated behavior; not moronic-more specifically aimed at achieving said goal. Only problem is it’s counter to logic, public safety, etc. Only goal; POWER. Politics.
