'What I said was accurate': Sen. Kennedy defends calling Pelosi 'dumb'

Sen. John Kennedy defended himself for having called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “dumb” during a Wednesday night rally with President Trump in Louisiana.

Joining the president on stage to urge state voters to support Republicans and Trump in upcoming elections, the Louisiana Republican said, “In three short years, President Trump has doubled the growth in the greatest economy in all of human history. And do you know what our Democratic friends have done for him? Speaker Nancy Pelosi is trying to impeach him. I don’t mean any disrespect, but it must suck to be that dumb.”
