Trump: Scalise Is Too Sick With Cancer To Be Speaker

“He is in serious trouble from the standpoint of his cancer. He’s got to get better for himself. I’m not talking about even the country now.

“I’m saying he’s got to get better. And this is tremendous stress. All of the things that you hear about and, you know, things that you don’t want to get involved in from the standpoint of getting.

“Steve is going through very, very serious cancer therapy. And of course, then he had that horrible attack years ago that, you know, it was amazing that he came back. I went to the hospital.

“I was with him the night it happened. I was literally with him, holding his hand. And I was there the night that it happened that the doctors gave him probably a 10 percent chance that he made it. But there’s tremendous after effects there. But he’s got a very serious form of cancer.

“And, you know, most importantly, I want Steve to get well, I just don’t know how you can do the job when you have — that’s a serious problem. And you know what it does? They drain you of strength. Supposedly. It’s like a draining of strength.

“And we need tremendous strength both inside and out, because we have radical left, lunatics like Nancy Pelosi and Schiff and all these crazy people that are so bad for our country. And they’ve got to fight them off and they’ve got to fight the outside world.” – Word Salad Hitler, speaking to Fox host Brian Kilmeade, who repeatedly asked if Scalise’s health is why he backed Jim Jordan for speaker. Trump dodged every time.
