Marjorie Taylor Greene got Donald Trump supporters to boo Paul Pelosi at an Iowa rally the former US president held last night.

The Georgia lawmaker also slammed US Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband for not having a gun to shoot the suspect that attacked him with a hammer after breaking into the couple's San Francisco home six days ago.

"The only crime victim you hear about from Democrats and the media is Paul Pelosi," she told the rally in Sioux City, prompting an outpouring of booing from the crowd.

"Paul Pelosi was brutally attacked by a drugged-out illegal alien that should have been deported, and Paul Pelosi should have been a gun owner and shot his attacker," she added.

Her comments came as Mr Pelosi was released from hospital where he was treated for a fractured skull and other injuries sustained during the attack last week.
