Navarro, appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union With Jake Tapper,” said, “Look, the President of the United States is the biggest fish in this structure, right? He’s got the biggest bully pulpit of all. And if he wants unity of command, even if he thinks he’s being maligned by the mayor of San Juan, he’s got to shut up!”
“And the reason he’s got to shut up is because he is in a gold, inlaid golf course right now while she is wading through water up to her chest. And so if nothing else, the optics look terrible,” she added.
Mayor Cruz has previously praised Oscar Lopez Rivera, a convicted terrorist.
On Saturday, Cruz got on television again to attack President Trump and his wife, stating, “maybe he’s used to women who have to be told what to do. That’s not who we are in San Juan.” (RELATED: San Juan Mayor ATTACKS Trump, Melania: ‘Maybe He’s Used To Women Who Have To Be Told What To Do’ [VIDEO])
