President Donald Trump lashed out Sunday night at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., on Twitter following a CBS “60 Minutes” interview during which she recounted standing up to him and reiterated her opinion that he is unfit for office and knows it.
“There’s nobody in the country who knows better that he should not be president of the United States than Donald Trump,” Pelosi told CBS’s Lesley Stahl in a roughly 14-minute segment that aired Sunday.

But he took a different tune Monday when he said that if he were in charge of the American aviation giant – as opposed to, say, the executive branch – he would “FIX the Boeing 737 MAX, add some additional great features, & REBRAND the plane with a new name.”
“No product has suffered like this one,” Trump tweeted. “But again, what the hell do I know?”
