Pelosi mocks Trump: Ice cream in my freezer better than Lysol in your lungs

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday mocked comments by President Trump, who had earlier in the day ridiculed her for showing off a freezer packed with ice cream during a recent television appearance.

“He makes a big fuss about my having ice cream in my freezer …” Pelosi said during an appearance on MSNBC on Tuesday. “I have ice cream in my freezer. I guess it's better than having Lysol in somebody’s lungs as he’s suggesting.”

Her comeback took aim at Trump’s remarks at a White House press conference last week when he suggested, incorrectly, that toxic disinfectants like Lysol could be injected or inhaled to fight coronavirus.

While Trump later said he was being sarcastic, officials said Tuesday that two Georgia men suffering from psychiatric problems ingested household chemicals to protect themselves against COVID-19.
