Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is taking solace from the idea that history will punish President Donald Trump.

In an interview with Jonathan Karl on ABC’s This Week on Sunday, a dejected Pelosi was asked about her feelings on the January 6th protests now that Trump is back in the White House.

Here is a transcript of the exchange:

KARL: We see what is happening at the Capitol. What is going through your head?

PELOSI:  Well, it was clear that the president of the United States had incited an insurrection. And we begged him to send the National Guard.

Typical of him, he never represents the truth. He said, ‘Well, I was going to send them.’ Get out of here. Even Mitch McConnell was on the phone with us, saying, ‘Get them here right away.’ But they never sent them.”

The sorrow of it also springs from the fact that this president is trying to rewrite history, have a different narrative of what happened that day.

What happened that day was horrible. It was an assault on the Capitol, the symbol of democracy to the world.

It was an assault on the Congress, the day we honored our responsibility under the Constitution to certify the Electoral College, who was elected president, as an assault on the Constitution of the United States. It was horrible.

KARL: Has he paid a price for it?

PELOSI: No, he’s president of the United States now. But history will, he’ll pay a price in history.

Watch the clip below:

Back in October, Pelosi went ballistic after a reporter from Lindell TV confronted her about why she refused to call in the National Guard on January 6th.

“Shut up! I did not refuse the National Guard,” Pelosi raged. “The President didn’t send it. Why are you coming here with Republican talking points as if you are a serious journalist?”

Pelosi’s claim about the National Guard was false.

Video released by the House Oversight Committee in June 2024 shows Nancy Pelosi acknowledging responsibility for security failures on that day.
