President Trump spoke at a rally in Nashville Tuesday night, and as usual, he didn’t hold anything back in front of an enthusiastic crowd of supporters.
CNN’s Jim Acosta was certainly happy to be there covering the event and made note that Trump at one point claimed that Rep. Nancy Pelosi “loves MS-13.”
Trump just referred to Pelosi as an “MS-13 lover. She loves MS-13.”

The rhetoric might be a bit more shocking if Trump hadn’t come out a week earlier and proclaimed that “Nancy Pelosi came out in favor of MS-13.” And that, of course, was a reference to Pelosi’s awkward way of defending MS-13 against Trump’s claims that they were “animals”; Pelosi objected, appealing to “the spark of divinity” to be found in each brutal gang member.
To be honest, we’d love to see Pelosi come out swinging — not against Trump, but against MS-13, just to prove him wrong.
It doesn’t look like Trump lost too many supporters by stepping over the line.

Prove she didn't praise MS-13 https://t.co/28OrTOnZfZ

"Spark of divinity" I think she actually put it. https://t.co/VQCaUYKZ7t

I'll say it Jimbo. @NancyPelosi LOVES MS-13. So does @SenSchumer https://t.co/sJd1GOj9F0

She certainly hasn’t dont anything to suggest otherwise. If Trump said he loved MS-13, Pelosi would stand against them. But, we all know how this works https://t.co/EmIkMSPc0I

Well, she did defend them against his incredibly nice "animals" remark, so is it really inaccurate? https://t.co/8d25mvOiYr

When she sides with a group of "ANIMALS" more than your own fellow Americans, vets, poor, homeless and middle class…then yes…she does love them…this is an accurate statement… https://t.co/kJqxfJOwoV

she does, Jim. I know the truth is foreign to you. Now, go primp for the briefing tomorrow. Try to think of something to ask that will make you look like even more of an idiot than usual. We look forward to your lunacy and makeup. https://t.co/6VVysLluJb

Well, she's at least a sympathizer, which can be perceived as an act of love. Sooooooo, yeah. https://t.co/fnY1LXXRV5

We’ll give the final word to CNN contributor Doug Heye.
As one of the #FirePelosi originators, I can’t believe I’m going to defend her here but she does not, in fact, love gangs. https://t.co/rlQQImAoOH
— Doug Heye (@DougHeye) May 30, 2018
We do not believe Pelosi loves gangs either … so enough with the “spark of divinity” business, OK? How about some action?
