President Donald Trump on Friday celebrated New York Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler's announcement that he would not seek reelection, blasting him as "one of the most disgusting Congressmen" in U.S. history.

"Jerry Nadler, one of the most disgusting Congressmen in USA History is, at long last, calling it 'quits' - He’s finally leaving Congress!" Trump posted on Truth Social.

"I’ve been beating this bum for 40 years, first as a New York City developer, where he opposed me, for no reason, at every corner, but could NEVER stop me from getting the job done, and then, as your President, where this psychopathic nut job, together with Crazy Nancy Pelosi, Impeached me twice, AND LOST, wasting Millions of Dollars in time and taxpayer money," he added. "It will be a great day for the U.S.A. when Nadler, a pathetic lightweight, is out of office and leaves our beautiful, and NOW VERY SAFE, Washington, D.C. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DJT."

Nadler, 78, announced Monday that he will not seek re-election next year, after 34 years in Congress, saying that he is responding to the call for generational change that has recently been dividing his party.
