Trump’s White House usually bars reporters from attending his fundraisers — though an audio recording of an event last week in St. Louis quickly leaked. Tuesday night, Trump once again criticized Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., as a “low-IQ individual” and went after House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi. “These days there are no such thing as a Blue Dog Democrat, a red state Democrat, or a conservative Democrat. Because they are all Pelosi Democrats: weak on crime, weak on terrorism and weak on national defence,” he said. During one riff, Trump talked about how he’d lifted a ban on oil and gas drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
