As we told you Monday, President Trump said that he’s been taking hydroxychloroquine for preventative reasons for about two weeks:

On CNN with Anderson Cooper, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who often says people should “trust the doctors,” played a doctor herself with this attempt to zing Trump:
Speaker Pelosi tells @AC360 it’s not a good idea for President Trump to be taking hydroxychloroquine because of his age and the fact that he’s “morbidly obese”

Pelosi’s attempts to be awarded more crowns from the Dem base will never stop.
Dr. Pelosi now speaking out.
Why are our politicians all uniformly such morons? https://t.co/D0LN1M0Txf

So fat shaming is good again?

Time again to play “what if…”:
Can you imagine if a conservative called anyone on the left “morbidly obese”? The media bias is shameful. https://t.co/YWXGKUYVSN

Imagine if someone on Fox said this about Stacey Abrams. But no, instead we all have to smile and nod when WaPo calls her a “runway model” https://t.co/XzZhwf4RvI

All we know is that if a Republican said something like that about a Democrat, slams on “fat-shaming” would be part of the Dem/media reaction.
Did she seriously just say that? Can’t wait to hear Trump’s reply to that one …. https://t.co/X57EmE2C2z

I’ve never been so excited for a Trump tweet.
This one is gonna be good. ? https://t.co/XnKtC2oBbX— Jason ?? (@GarciaJason) May 19, 2020
The world now awaits Trump’s comeback. But at least the Washington Post’s in-house “conservative” appreciated it:
Nancy Pelosi is a national treasure.
