Leftist verified Twitter user Christopher Bouzy celebrated the release of the clip in a tweet.
“Pelosi saying she will punch out Trump is the drug I didn’t know I needed,” Bouzy insisted.

The footage was taken by filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, the Speaker’s daughter, and was aired on “Anderson Cooper 360.”
After a staff member told Pelosi that the Secret Service told Trump that they do not have the resources to protect him at the Capitol, so he seemed to not be coming, she added, “Tell him if he comes here, we’re going to the White House.”
