Pelosi hammers Trump for 'very dangerous' attack on FDA

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) bashed President Trump on Saturday after he urged the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to expedite the approval of coronavirus treatments, warning that the president was undermining public safety to help his reelection.

"The FDA has a responsibility to approve drugs, judging on their safety and their efficacy, not by a declaration from the White House about speed and politicizing the FDA," Pelosi said during a rare Saturday press briefing in the Capitol.

"This was a very dangerous statement on the part of the president," she added. "Even for him, it went beyond the pale in terms of how he would jeopardize the health and well-being of the American people."

Hours earlier, Trump raised eyebrows when he attacked the FDA on Twitter, accusing "deep state" officials at the agency of slow-walking drug approvals related to the coronavirus in order to hamper his prospects at the polls in November.

Pnumonia vaccines yesterday and I feel awful
Muscle aches and omg my arm.

I feel miserable. These vaccines I got already have been approved by the FDA before trump polluted the FDA. Pnumonia It's a hard vaccine.

Now if trump manages to bully the FDA into approving a vaccine that is not ready it could make my pnumonia shot a walk in the park.

And if a law mandates we must take it no matter what harm it causes,this frightens me. Trump may kill off many innocent people to appear like he's not sitting on his ass and an incompetant boob.

I do not trust trump
any vaccine pushed by trump becausee he politizises everything and has narcissism. He is so bloated and disgusting as a person it's sickening


The FDA must disregard Trump's demands to hurry up. Tell him to fuck off.

I don't think I'd trust anything or any vaccine trump pr his criminal cabal pushes upon us.

He's already a murderer.
Does not care at all about anyone else.
He hates so many people.
He has no sense or empathy,he is a criminal and hate filled gasbag.

I will not take trump poison.
