Pelosi made the "scared puppy" remark in an interview with The New York Times on Sunday. She was asked about Trump's recent attacks on her and other Democrats, and she said that he was "acting like a scared puppy."
Trump responded to Pelosi's remark on Monday in a statement on his social media platform Truth Social. He said that Pelosi was "delusional" and that she was "only trying to distract from the fact that her husband is under investigation for insider trading."
Trump also accused Paul Pelosi of being involved in "weird" and "sick" financial dealings. He said that Pelosi had made millions of dollars in stock trades while his wife was Speaker of the House.
Pelosi's office has denied any wrongdoing by Paul Pelosi. A spokesperson for Pelosi said that the stock trades were made by a financial advisor and that Pelosi had no knowledge of them.
The back-and-forth between Trump and Pelosi is the latest in a series of attacks between the two politicians. Trump has repeatedly attacked Pelosi, calling her names and accusing her of corruption. Pelosi has responded by calling Trump a "bully" and a "threat to democracy."
The feud between Trump and Pelosi is likely to continue as the two politicians prepare for the 2024 presidential election. Trump has hinted that he may run for president again, and Pelosi is expected to be a leading contender for the Democratic nomination.
It remains to be seen whether Trump's attacks on Pelosi will hurt her chances of winning the Democratic nomination. However, it is clear that the feud is already having an impact on the political landscape.
