Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said she considers Donald Trump’s name a swear word and, because she is Catholic, refuses to say it.

Pelosi, a top Democrat from California, revealed her thoughts on saying the former president’s name and described him as “what’s-his-name” during an interview with The Guardian released Tuesday. “I hardly ever say his name,” Pelosi said.

“I think [Trump is] a grotesque word…You just don’t like the word passing your lips,” she added. “I just don’t. I’m afraid, you know, when I grew up Catholic, as I am now, if you said a bad word, you could burn in hell if you didn’t have a chance to confess. So I don’t want to take any chances.”

“It’s up there with, like, swearing.”

1. Nancy and her family have been terrorized by the monster.

Her feelings are more than justified!

[CousinIT]

2. I've noticed that. She typically calls him "what's his name". N/t

[Harker]

3. That's admirable, but severely limiting.

I wouldn't expect that she'd refer to Trumpsky as "that stupid fucking shit bag" as I do.

9. Well he is stupid, and by all accounts

smells like a bag of shit, so...

[2naSalit]

4. And whatever you do...

Don't say his name three time in a row!

[lark]

5. I so agree with Speaker Emerita Pelosi on this and many things.

I almost never use the his name and then when I do it's because I'm talking to a repug and they won't know who tcf or tsf is.

[Clouds Passing]

6. That's why I call him Dump, I've heard President Biden call him Dump.

Let’s send Dump to the dump

[Marthe48]

7. I not only avoid using traitor's name

I avoid using any of the words or punctuation he is known to use.

8. I'm with Nancy!

Trump is the worst word I know.

10. Nancy, call him KFC, it's like hitting 2 birds with one stone

[riversedge]

19. good one.

[FakeNoose]

11. I hear ya Nancy ... to me, he's "Chump"

12. Shakespeare's Macbeth

YOUNG SIWARD
No, thou call’st thyself a hotter name
than any is in hell.

MACBETH
My name’s Macbeth.

YOUNG SIWARD
The devil himself could not pronounce a title
More hateful to mine ear.
--Shakespeare, Macbeth 5.7.6-9

13. There's a young man at my work who's last name is Trump.

I feel bad for him.

[SpankMe]

14. I play card games, like Hearts and Spades and Bridge

And I feel awkward referring to the trump suit. Orange Asshole® has ruined to word 'trump'. Recently, I've been calling it the "boss suit".

[CTyankee]

15. I call him the sick fuck, TSF. I thought that was what Biden calls him. Am I wrong?

[kimbutgar]

16. I can't say his name either when I post

The orange turd, maggot, TCF, TFA, orange monster T#@&p are some of the words I use.

Agree 100% with Speaker Em. Pelosi

[joanbarnes]

17. ....and I have NEVER called him 'President.'

[Faux pas]

18. That's

why I only call him the hump.
