"Nancy Pelosi Speaker Emerita Pelosi is a legendary figure, a hero, [and] she's done so much for so many over so many years, Jeffries said. She speaks powerfully, she speaks authentically, she speaks eloquently on issues of importance to the American people. As I indicated, Nancy Pelosi is a legend. She has done more for people here in this country than almost every single American who has served in the House of Representatives, Jeffries said."
"She's a force of nature, she's made a difference in the lives of millions of people and it's been an honor and a privilege to serve with her over these years that I've spent in Congress."
"Do you stand by what your mentor, Congresswoman Pelosi, said about the president? Even in that moment?"
"Pelosi, during the aforementioned CNN interview, said she believed Trump was the worst thing in the world because he does not honor the Constitution."
Hakeem Jeffries declined to directly answer questions about Nancy Pelosi calling President Trump the worst thing in the world and instead praised Pelosi repeatedly on Fox News. Bret Baier played a clip and asked whether Jeffries stood by Pelosi’s remarks; Jeffries smirked and offered only laudatory comments about Pelosi’s career and impact. Jeffries called Pelosi a legend, a force of nature, and said she had done more for people than almost every House member. Jeffries was selected to replace Pelosi as top House Democrat after the 2022 midterms and has been publicly criticizing Republicans over policy and shutdown issues.
