“It’s like a manhood thing for him. As if manhood could ever be associated with him. This wall thing,” Pelosi said, as recounted by an aide in the meeting who was not authorized to comment publicly, according to the Washington Post.

I am a Democrat, and vigorously anti-Trump, but this is beneath the dignity of a federal legislator. It "puts down" Pelosi more than it does Trump. These are not words uttered by someone governing a major nation. These are words uttered by a ten year old on a schoolyard. I am not impressed, I am embarrassed.
