Huckabee Jokes That 'The Scream' Painting Reminds Him of Pelosi

Former Governor Mike Huckabee on Sunday joked that the famous painting "The Scream" by Edward Munch reminded him of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's (D., Calif.) reaction to President Donald Trump's speech to Congress on Feb. 28.

Huckabee tweeted a photo with the painting, as well as a close-up shot of the screaming figure in the painting, writing, "At museum in Oslo--wasn't sure if this was Edward Munch's 'The Scream' or Nancy Pelosi at Trump speech last week."

Pelosi spent a large part of the president's joint session speech to Congress in her seat in protest.
