Nancy Pelosi Just Flat Out Called Trump 'Morbidly Obese' While Suggesting He Not Take Hydroxychloroquine

During a recent press conference, President Trump claimed to be taking the malaria drug hydroxychloroquine, which prompted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to advise him against doing so, due to his age and, well...the shape he's in.


Hydroxychloroquine has long been an obsession of President Trump's despite a lack of scientific evidence proving its value.

Trump's near-constant support of the drug has drawn the rebuke of health officials, who warn it can also cause heart murmurs in certain patients. Americans have already died as a result of using the drug in misguided attempts to fight the virus.

On Anderson Cooper 360, Nancy Pelosi expressed her concern that President Trump should not be taking the drug because he is "morbidly obese."



Some online felt there were plenty of ways to criticize the President without attacking him for his weight.

Others felt that the attack was fair game considering what Trump has said in the past.




Whether you agreed with Pelosi's words or not, the hashtags #PresidentPlump, #TrumpMorbidlyObese, and #GirtherMovement all started trending on Twitter.




There were many online who doubted Trump was taking the drug at all.

There are, of course, more important issues than the President's weight at play here.


Hopefully, the President's doctors are giving him a stern talking to even now about which drugs are safe to take and which are not.

Pelosi's daughter has written a book, The Nancy Pelosi Way, available here.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
