The Democratic Party left in anger when Trump called House Speaker Pelosi "a third-class politician" amid a White House meeting on October 16.

The White House yesterday convened a meeting with Democratic leaders in parliament to discuss US President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw troops from Syria before Turkey launched its military operation in the country. Before the meeting, the House of Representatives passed a resolution criticizing Trump's decision to withdraw troops with overwhelming votes of 354 votes and 60 votes against.

When House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, House of Representatives leader Steny Hoyer and Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer were present, Trump began the meeting with a long, bragging monologue about the "angry" letter. "To Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for his decision to attack northern Syria," said a senior aide to the Democratic Party.

The meeting soon turned into a "fight" around Trump's decision to withdraw troops from Syria on October 7, paving the way for Turkish soldiers to flood into northern Syria, attacking Kurdish militants US intelligence in the fight against the Islamic State (IS) self-proclaimed.

During the debate, Schumer mentioned former defense minister James Mattis, who on NBC's "Meet the Press" on October 13 warned that Trump's decision to withdraw troops from Syria could lead to IS revival.

According to many aides, Trump has called Mattis "the most overrated general in the world". "You know why? He's not tough enough. I killed IS. Mattis said it took two years to do it, but I only needed a month," Trump said.

The debate heated up when House Speaker Pelosi criticized Trump for allowing Russia to get involved in Syria. "Every path he takes leads to Putin," she said. In response, Trump bluntly stated that Pelosi was "a third-class politician".

This seems to be a "teardrop" that made the Democratic leadership angry. "His words do not help," Hoyer told Trump, according to a senior Democratic aide.

After that, both Pelosi and Hoyer stood up simultaneously, leaving the meeting room. "Goodbye, we'll meet at the election," Trump said as they left the White House.

The three Democratic party leaders in parliament then had a brief press conference with reporters outside the White House. "What we witnessed from the president was a wave of anger. It's a shame to say that," Pelosi said.

"I think that vote, with a 2: 1 opposition to the president's actions within the Republican party, may have a negative effect on him. That's why we cannot continue. This meeting is because he doesn't accept reality, "Pelosi said.

"He insults people, especially to the Speaker of the House of Representatives," Schumer continued during the press conference. "This is no longer a dialogue. This is a malicious attack."

Hoyer also said that Democrats have been "heavily offended" from the way Trump dealt with Pelosi. He said that during his time in parliament during his six-term presidency, he "never" witnessed a president "treated disrespectfully" with such a legislature.

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham denied the way Democrats described the meeting. "The president was cautious, realistic, and assertive, while President Pelosi's decision to leave is confusing but not surprising. She has no intention of listening to or contributing to an important meeting on issues. this national security issue, "Grisham said.

Republican congressman Kevin McCarthy, a leader of the minority in the House of Representatives, said it was disappointing that Democratic leaders left the meeting. "When there is a crisis, leaders should stay there, whether they want to hear or not," he said.

The meeting took place in the context of the US House of Representatives opening investigation of impeachment of Trump. Democrats on October 16 said impeachment was not raised during a meeting with the President.

The situation at the meeting on October 16 reminded of Trump's meeting in May of the White House infrastructure with congressional leaders. At that time Pelosi said that Trump was "angry" and "stormed" out of the meeting room. Trump said that at the time, he would only work with Democrats if they ended his investigation.
