While speaking at the annual Gridiron Club Dinner on Saturday, President Trump took shots at a number of Washington politicians, including Rep.

“The most important thing this country can do now is impeach this president and make sure we get rid of him and get ready for Pence in 2020,” she added.

“What do you expect from a low IQ Democrat,” The Right Scoop asked…
