Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Joe Biden has to win the presidential election because former President Donald Trump was “predicting a bloodbath.”
Trump’s remarks, which the media unsurprisingly took out of context, were made during a rally in Dayton, OH, last week.
“If you’re listening, President Xi — and you and I are friends — but he understands the way I deal.”
“Those big monster car manufacturing plants that you’re building in Mexico right now, and you think you’re going to get that, you’re going to not hire Americans, and you’re going to sell the cars as now we’re going to put a 100% tariff on every single car that comes across the line, and you’re not going to be able to sell those guys if I get elected.”
“Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath for the whole — That’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.”
During an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union,’ Pelosi said:
“But we have, we just have to win this election because he’s even predicting a bloodbath. What does that mean?”
“He’s going to exact a bloodbath? There’s something wrong here,” Pelosi said.
“How respectful I am of the American people and their goodness, but how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn’t what our country is about?”
“Praising Hitler praising the Russians — honestly, I didn’t condemn our soldiers for losing or dying in war or being captured in war. He said he was wrong with Russia.”
Watch
“They defeated Hitler. What about the millions of Americans who risked or gave their lives?”
“What about him saying that soldiers buried in Europe? He didn’t want to visit them because they were losers.”
