Comic and political pundit Bill Maher got some pushback when he asked Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) about a newly-surfaced clip from Jan. 7 in which she says “I take responsibility” — and Pelosi told him she’d “never take responsibility for” former President Donald Trump.
CNN obtained previously-unseen footage this week that was shot by documentarian Alexandra Pelosi, expanding on clips that were shown at the January 6 hearings and in a previously-released documentary.
On Friday night’s edition of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, Pelosi was Maher’s interview guest, and objected to Maher’s interpretation of a clip in wich Pelosi says “I take responsibility.”
Pelosi explained she was really commenting on Trump:
BILL MAHER: Okay. So there’s some interesting stuff in the book about January 6th.
SPEAKER EMERITA NANCY PELOSI: Yeah.
BILL MAHER: Trump is going to have an award ceremony for the rioters coming out.
And there’s some footage of you that just came out where you’re talking about, you say, I’m quoting you, “I take responsibility.”.
Now. I think you’re talking about the fact that there should have been more protection there.
SPEAKER EMERITA NANCY PELOSI: No, what I’m talking about is that we didn’t demand that the president. Wha– First of all, who could have ever thought that the president of the United States would incite an insurrection or against the Congress, the Constitution and the.
BILL MAHER: Me! I was saying. I was saying it for years, I was absolutely.
SPEAKER EMERITA NANCY PELOSI: I’m not ever taking responsibility for Donald Trump!
BILL MAHER: Right.
SPEAKER EMERITA NANCY PELOSI: But I’m only responsibility I will take for Donald Trump is to make sure he is not reelected.
Unidentified We’ll see you there. Well, I was saying that you had to.
