nation".
we begin with house speaker
nancy pelosi.
we spoke with her just after the
conclusion of public impeachment
hearings friday.
our conversation started with
president trump's real-time
tweet about ambassador marie
yovanovitch.
why do you think he was tweeting
about her?
>> well, he made a mistake.
and he knows her strength and he
was trying to undermine it.
of course the president appoints
ambassadors but people don't
insult people especially when
they are giving testimony before
the congress of the united
states.
i think even his most ardent
supporters have to honestly
admit this was the wrong thing
for the president to do.
>> the white house said it was
just his opinion.
he wasn't trying to intimidate.
what do you think?
>> the president and perhaps
some at the white house what
they have to know is the words
of the president weigh a ton,
they are very significant and he
should not frivolously throw out
insults.
but that's what he does.
i think part of it is his own
insecurity...
