We guess Nancy Pelosi has a new book to sell, "The Art of Power," as CNN introduces her as an author now. We still don't know much about the hammer attack on Paul Pelosi, but CNN's Jake Tapper has a feeling that the rhetoric coming from President Donald Trump someone inspired the attacker. Tapper doesn't ask, "Do you hold Trump responsible for the attack" — he asks, "How much do you hold Trump responsible."

Is Jake serious?

If Trump is responsible for Paul Pelosi, Nancy is responsible for the attempted assassination of Trump, along with a lot of other Democrats.

The attempted assassination of Trump is old news. We don't talk about it anymore.
That's a garbage question, Jake.

The CNN ticker reads “He also attacked Kamala Harris and her running mate… during a press conference…” ATTACKED?! This is the exact rhetoric that causes inflammatory responses. CNN should be held accountable. @CNN

So does that mean she’s responsible for assassination attempt

"Mr Trump, how much do you hold Pelosi responsible for the assassination attempt on your life ?"

Can't wait for Tapper to ask this question to Trump
B.S. question. He should have asked: is there any reason known to you why X attacked your husband?

We'll actually give Pelosi some credit here for sidestepping such a stupid question.
