Speaking with MSNBC’s Joy Reid, during an interview that aired on Tuesday, the House speaker bluntly said, “Donald Trump was a stain on our country.”

“I don’t think we could have sustained our democracy if he had two terms in office, for what he was doing to our institutions, or for what he was doing to our Constitution,” she continued. “He dishonored it.”

She added:

“He, in every respect, was unworthy to be president. Did not respect the office that held, and certainly, did not respect the office the rest of us hold as well.”
