Progressive groups slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in their post-mortem on the 2020 election for "showing off" her expensive freezers full of premium Jeni's ice cream during an interview at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic. Pelosi showed off a freezer full of ice cream during an April appearance on CBS' "Late Late Show." The Trump reelection campaign parlayed Pelosi's appearance into an ad portraying the speaker as elitist by juxtaposing Pelosi showing her freezer full of ice cream with headlines that Americans were waiting for "hours" at food banks. In the following clip, Pelosi says: "I don't know what I would have done if ice cream were not invented." "Let them eat ice cream," the quote reads, before citing "Nancy Antoinette."
