Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Sunday that a series of coronavirus executive actions announced by President Trump are “illusions,” not lasting solutions.
“What the president did is unconstitutional slop,” Pelosi said on “Fox News Sunday,” adding that the orders, rather than effectively getting more money to the unemployed and halting evictions, “are illusions.”
Host Chris Wallace countered that Trump made the announcement amid an extended impasse over the next round of coronavirus relief in Congress.
“Having no bill at all, not coming to any agreement, wasn’t going to provide any of that either,” he said.
