Shortly after calling into question President Trump’s mental health on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe,’ House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s own mental health came under scrutiny, as the 77-year-old California congresswoman referred to President Trump as “President Bush” and forgot what day of the week it is.
A reporter quickly helped her correct the gaffe, interjecting “Trump,” but Pelosi appeared oblivious she slipped up.
An aide then emerged from the sidelines, passing Pelosi a note, notifying her she got the two presidents mixed up again.
Pelosi’s confusion came just two hours after suggesting Trump was losing his mind. “I am concerned,” she said on MSNBC, about Trump’s “fitness for office.”
“I think his family should be concerned about his health,” Pelosi said. “The fact is that this is hopefully not reparable — he’s the president of the United States.”
“You mean you hope it is reparable?” Joe Scarborough asked, apparently confused.
“Yeah, yeah,” she replied.
Asked if she had advise for Trump, she said, “go to sleep, get some sleep. Bring yourself to a place where your synapses are working.”
During her weekly press conference, Pelosi not only became confused over who is president, but also what day of the week it is.
“I spoke with the speaker a week, a week and a couple days ago, about — oh, no, just last Friday,” she said. “What is today? Is it Friday again?”
