A new book by journalists Peter Baker and Susan Glasser claim that former President Donald Trump made disparaging remarks about female politicians while in office — including some in his own party.
The journalists — who co-authored the new book, The Divider: Trump in the White House, 2017–2021 — write that Trump “harshly criticized women for their looks, telling visitors that Speaker Nancy Pelosi was an example of why women should be careful about plastic surgery.”
The authors write that Trump told others he would not pick his own United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley as a future running mate because she had a “complexion problem.”
