Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said during an interview over the weekend that President Joe Biden’s economic plan was working but that the president needed to explain that to people to make sure that “American people know.”

Pelosi made the remarks during an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with host Dana Bash.

Bash rattled off a series of economic metrics that she said were positive news for the Biden administration and then asked Pelosi why the numbers do match Americans’ sentiment about the economy that is reflected in polling.

“Well, a lot of it’s about messaging, of course,” Pelosi said. “I’m so proud of this president. In the two years that we were in the majority working with him, he broke all records, on the level with a Lyndon Johnson or a Franklin Roosevelt, in terms of the caliber of legislation that he passed for the good of the people, lowering prescription drugs, again, cutting in half – as you indicate, cutting in half unemployment.”

Pelosi said that the alleged success that the administration has had “has to be messaged” for Americans to know its true, even if the reality that the experience does not reflect the messaging from the Biden administration.

“This president did such a remarkable job,” Pelosi claimed. “He is a person of such knowledge, such vision for the country, such knowledge of the issues, such strategic thinking and such a legislator, and, on top of it all, a person who connects with the American people.”

“He just has to get out there,” she continued. “It’s a busy job being president. I can say that as being speaker. You’re doing your work. But he’s just going to have to make sure the American people know at that kitchen table what this means to them, in terms of jobs and pay, reducing inflation.”

Former President Donald Trump slammed President Joe Biden in an interview that aired Sunday over the United States’ current weak posture toward China.

The remarks were contained in the second part of an interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures” that was recorded a little over a week ago.

“Look, this is the most dangerous time in the history of our country because of weaponry. The nuclear power is so enormous,” Trump said. “This isn’t two Army tanks going and shooting each other in World War I, World War II, soldiers standing behind a bunker and shooting people.”

“This is obliteration,” he continued. “And we have a man that doesn’t understand what he’s doing. We have a man that … stood up and told the whole world that we have no ammunition.”

Trump said that while he was president he had “every ammunition building full to the brim three years ago.”

“We’ve given it all away … The only thing worse than that is to tell the world,” Trump said. “He has told China and these other places that are hostile that we have no ammunition.”

Trump said that Biden giving large quantities of U.S. ammunition to other nations was “worse than any document that you could give,” a reference to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s documents case against Trump.

“So, now these people are sitting back in China and other places that hate us, including North Korea, where I had a very good relationship with Kim Jong Un and kept our country safe,” he said. “They’re talking about the United States of America has no ammunition. Think of it. How stupid can somebody be to say that?”
