Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday joined a growing number of right-wingers pushing baseless conspiracy theories about last week's attack on Paul Pelosi.
Trump mused about the assault on the husband of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi at their San Francisco home last week in an interview with conservative radio host Chris Stigall. Paul Pelosi was attacked with a hammer by an intruder targeting his wife and remains in the intensive care unit after undergoing surgery on a fractured skull and other injuries. San Francisco District Attorney Brooke Jenkins described the attack as "politically motivated" and the suspect himself told investigators that he planned to hold the House speaker hostage and break "her kneecaps," according to the Justice Department.
