‘Let me just say this, anything the president says is a projection of his own insecurities. He calls other people crazy because he knows he is,’ she said. 

‘So anytime he says something you say, “Uh-oh, that’s what he’s thinking of himself,’ she continued. 

Cramer tried to walk back his comments several times throughout the interview.  

‘You know, I was being facetious when I used the term involving you,’ he said. ‘I respect you. Anyone who gives their life to public service and is speaker of the House should not be called that name.’

‘I don’t even want to use it again,’ he continued.  

Pelosi waved it off, saying she had ‘great respect’ for the ‘Mad Money’ host. 

‘Don’t worry about that, she offered. ‘Let that be your biggest problem today.’ 

The speaker also said she saw no point in calling up Trump in order to get another coronavirus relief bill deal. 

‘What is the point?’ she asked Cramer. ‘The president has sent his representatives and if he has confidence in them, than I do too.’ 

She called out Trump for his deceptions and proclivity for lying.  

‘So if you’re talking to him you’re almost wasting your time,’ she said. 

Pelosi also pointed out that it had been under a year since she’d talked with Trump, having spoken to him last October and interacted with him at the early February State of the Union.
