00:00In a surprising announcement on social media on November 6th, former House Speaker Nancy

00:05Pelosi said she plans to retire at the end of her current term, ending a four-decade

00:10career in the lower chamber.

00:12The first woman to wield the Speaker's gavel and President Trump have shared an infamously

00:16contentious relationship over the years.

00:19Even in the past few weeks, the two politicos are still trading jabs.

00:23On November 3rd, Pelosi called Trump a vile creature on CNN.

00:27He's just a vile creature.

00:30The worst thing on the face of the earth, but anyway.

00:33You think he's the worst thing on the face of the earth?

00:35I do, yeah.

00:36And Trump responded to Pelosi's retirement announcement with utter delight.

00:40He tells me the following, and this is a quote.

00:43The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America.

00:46She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country.

00:52She was rapidly losing control of her party, and it was never coming back.

00:56I'm very honored she impeached me twice and failed miserably twice.

01:00Nancy Pelosi is a highly overrated politician.

01:04Here's a look back at the pair's top six nastiest moments.

01:08Number one, public tensions in the Oval Office.

01:11As the government headed towards a shutdown in President Trump's first term, a tense bipartisan

01:16meeting with President Trump, then-Vice President Mike Pence, Pelosi, and Senator Chuck Schumer devolved

01:22into a shouting match, with the House Minority Leader pressing Trump to keep the government

01:26open.

01:27If I needed the votes for the wall in the House, I would have them in one session.

01:31It would be done.

01:32Go do it.

01:33It doesn't help because we need 10 Democrats in the Senate.

01:35No, don't put it on the Senate.

01:36Of course.

01:37Put it on the negotiations.

01:38Okay, let me ask you this.

01:39And we're doing this in a very friendly manner.

01:41It doesn't help for me to take a vote in the House where I will win easily with the Republicans.

01:46It doesn't help to take that vote because I'm not going to get the vote of the Senate.

01:51I need 10 senators.

01:53That's the problem.

01:54We have to have a wall as part of border security.

01:57And I don't think we really disagree so much.

01:59I also know that, you know, Nancy is in a situation where it's not easy for her to talk

02:04right now.

02:05And I understand that.

02:06And I fully understand that.

02:07We're going to have a good discussion and we're going to see what happens.

02:10But we have to have border security.

02:12Mr. President, please don't characterize the strength that I bring to this meeting as

02:17the leader of the House Democrats, who just won a big victory.

02:21Elections have consequences, Mr. President.

02:23Then he just said...

02:24And that's why the country is doing so well.

02:26Number two, clapping for Trump.

02:28In what became a viral and memefied moment on social media during Trump's State of the

02:33Union speech in 2019, then House Speaker Pelosi smirked, outstretched her arms, and clapped

02:39at Trump after the president called to stop the politics of revenge and embrace cooperation.

02:47Trump's 2020 State of the Union address also concocted a viral moment that spread like

03:01wildfire across social media.

03:03After the president refused to shake then House Speaker Pelosi's hand at the beginning

03:07of his one hour and 18 minute speech to Congress, Pelosi ripped up a copy of Trump's address

03:12as he ended his speech.

03:14Number four, punch him out.

03:21During the January 6 Stop the Steal rally, Pelosi was captured in footage taken by her

03:26daughter, documentary filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, saying she wanted to punch the president if

03:31he showed his face on Capitol Hill.

03:33I'm going to punch him out.

03:34This is my mom.

03:35I'm waiting for this, for trespassing on the Capitol grounds.

03:40I'm going to punch him out and I'm going to go to jail and I'm going to be happy.

03:44Number six, Trump pokes fun at Pelosi's husband.

03:47A little more than a year after Pelosi's husband, Paul Pelosi, was attacked inside the

03:52couple's San Francisco home, Trump poked fun at the bludgeoning during a rally in California.

03:56And we'll stand up to crazy Nancy Pelosi who ruined San Francisco.

04:03How's her husband doing, by the way?

04:07Anybody know?

04:09And she's against building a wall at our border even though she has a wall around her house,

04:18which obviously didn't do a very good job.

04:23And number six, Trump mouths a word starting with B. During his final campaign rally in

04:28Grand Rapids, Michigan, before the 2024 presidential election, Trump went all in on Pelosi, calling

04:35her evil, sick, crazy, before mouthing another word that he said started with the letter B.

04:41She's a crooked person.

04:42She's a bad person.

04:43Evil.

04:44She's an evil, sick, crazy.

04:47Bam.

04:48Oh, no.

04:54It starts with a B, but I won't say it.

04:57I want to say it.
