'I think it’s probably financial': Nancy Pelosi wonders what Putin has on Trump

joining me now is house Speaker amera Nancy Pelosi I'm so grateful you're here I know you just returned from Munich and it was a very busy trip which I'm very excited to talk to you about and I just wanted to start speaker Pelosi with Alexi naly I think we all have spent the last couple of days just thinking about him and the role he played and and I was very struck by the fact that it took Trump three days to finally make any comment about his death even though many people did um but when he di

d he compared naval's death to his own legal problems and didn't in any way condemn Vladimir Putin which doesn't seem hard for most people to do what did you think when you read that well first let me wish everyone a Happy President's Day I have these uh cherries here in this pin uh reminding us that George Washington said I cannot tell a lie I chopped down the cherry cherry tree now you're talking about a president a former president who cannot tell the truth and it uh the no assassination as i

t was such a tragic thing I was in Munich um when the news came out I heard his widow Julio speak to the gathered assemblage there to Great reception she could not at first face the fact that he might be dead and thought maybe Putin might be as usual lying but the fact is then the next day they said we have confirmed that he has been assassinated by Vladimir Putin putting it right at his doorstep so then his pal in the United States Donald Trump and you wonder what does Putin have on Donald Trum

p that he always has to be beholden to him his buddy his buddy in vess and if if I don't know if you're going to show American people the statement that he made but it's beneath the Dignity of a human being it is so horrible you think no somebody must have made this up not even Donald Trump could go this far as I've said he's in a limbo comp competition with himself how far can he go well now he's gone below sea level below ground level and this this uh statement should disqualify him from runni

ng for anything much less president of the United States I mean to hear her comments so sorry go ahead no I was going to say I I think so many people agree with you and I summarized it just showed it so people could see it but because it was so far off as you just said from what should be stated I I did want to ask you I mean you you seem to have this really touching moment with her after she gave that speech you just referenced it was caught on caught on video what did you convey to her of cour

se I conveyed condolences and the hope that what she that she was correct that he had not died but uh we all were suspicious because if she came when she made her speech she she was enormously received and she came down from the stage to to thank me for some things and of course I extended my uh sadness for what had happened but subscribing to her position at the time that it um that he might still be alive but he was assassinated and now they won't let the family have the body to bury or to to

examine or anything this is vess uh uh to your F first point here Putin is probably the richest person in the world probably the richest person in the world forget all these ratings that people have the richest person in the world he's also the most well not the most evil stiff competition for that honor but nonetheless uh among the top three or four most evil people in the world what does he have on Donald Trump that he have to constantly be catering to Putin telling Putin go into these countri

es NATO countries NATO was there to stop Russia to keep Russia out they have been successful for nearly 75 years we will celebrate that uh security success and then we have what's his name she I usually have him nameless saying um he doesn't support NATO and and uh invite encouraging Russia to invade NATO countries He Who Shall Not Be Named I know Voldemort well so there's another guy kind of like him what do you think we're all wondering this question speaker B what do you think Putin has on hi

m I mean it sure seems like something as you've said a few times given that he refuses to criticize him that he seems to be a fanboy of him are are you worried you know uh during the Muller go ahead sorry go ahead well first of all first of all we must be sure that he does not step one foot into the White House not as president or not as anything he has brought disgrace to the White House to these presidents I talked about George Washington it's also president's week for uh Abraham Lincoln when

Abraham Lincoln died it was embroidered in his coat that night at that theater one country one destiny and he gave his life to unify our country and now we have someone who had the honor of serving in the White House didn't consider it an honor didn't consider his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution and on this week speaking out the way he did about naani shows you that he is person without values he looks like he's going to be a person without dollars either but the values are

what concern us yes the the dollars I don't know what he has on them but I think it's probably Financial I think it's probably Financial either something Financial he has on or something on the come yeah let me ask about that as you just referenced I mean he's he owes a tremendous a half a billion dollars because of these civil lawsuits that were uh argued against him and he lost you know I asked John Bolton who I'm certain you don't have a lot of in common with about whether he's concerned tha

t a foreign leader a Ator and authoritarian country could have something could be trying to Target Trump and he said they probably already are do you agree with that do you share that concern well I've always been concerned that the first trip he made as president of the United States out of the country was to Saudi Arabia and you see now that his family is receiving investments in the billions from Saudi Arabia but really people care about what it means to them in their lives and this what also

happened over the weekend is what happened in Al Al Obama and personhood in the Supreme Court in vitro fertilization outlawed uh I have letter from my constituent who who said as a father I would not be a father without invitro fertilization you have to fight this you have to fight this in Mississippi we won two times when they tried to person Hood Mississippi Mississippi so make no mistake don't be misled by his fraudulent written up in the New York Times s is a legitimate what's happened to t

hem a legitimate proposal of of a time limit on uh terminating a pregnancy no ban on abortion but also let's talk about women just exercising their writer access to uh to uh contraception or to invitro fertilization this is a very dangerous person when it comes to your family at your kitchen table this is only one examp example of how dangerous he is it it's so important that Alabama case you raised I mean so many women are mothers because of IVF and so many are hoping to be mothers and he said

he wants a 16we band because he likes a round number so let's be horrified by that too
