Pelosi: Ignore Trump, He’s Trying To Suppress The Vote

The Hill reports:

As the GOP convention kicked off Monday, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) offered a message to American voters: ignore President Trump. “One thing I will say to the American people: Do not pay any attention to Donald Trump,” Pelosi said during an appearance on MSNBC.

“It is his goal to scare people from voting, to intimidate them by saying he’s going to have law enforcement people at the polls, to welcome Russian intervention into our election by letting Putin decide who will be president instead of the American people.

“But ignore him,” she said, “because his purpose is to diminish the vote, to suppress the vote.” The Speaker’s remarks came after she was asked about a new NBC News-Wall Street Journal poll revealing that only 45 percent of respondents said they would feel confident about votes being accurately counted in the November election.
