Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Wednesday on KTTV-LA's “6 PM News” that former President Donald Trump has “cognitive impairment.”
“It's Nikki Haley. You know, they deleted all the information, all the evidence, everything, destroyed everything. All of it. Nikki Haley,” Trump said at a campaign rally. For various reasons, including being in charge of security. We offered her whatever the 10,000 citizens, soldiers and National Guard wanted. They turned it down.”
Pelosi said, “First of all, he has a cognitive impairment. It's not just a gaffe on his part, using one name for another. Anyone can do that. But what was really dangerous was his accusation that we were not accepting his troops, more dangerous than confusing us. We begged him for hours. Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi tried to send in the National Guard, but he wouldn't do it. His subordinates, the secretary of the Army and the acting secretary of defense, wouldn't do that.”
She continued, “For hours people suffered, well over 100 police officers were injured, and many died. Then he not only incited an insurrection, but also… also lied about the National Guard.”
Pelosi added, “He caused great trouble for our country, but he is not above the law. He must pay for it. And he will never step foot in the White House for any purpose.” You shouldn’t.”
