Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi appeared agitated Wednesday when CNN’s Jake Tapper confronted her about insider trading allegations.
On "The Lead," Tapper tried to show President Donald Trump’s comments earlier that day accusing Pelosi of becoming rich "by having inside information" in stock trading. When he attempted to read Trump’s comments after a technical error, she quickly shut him down.
"Why do you have to read that?" Pelosi erupted. "We‘re here to talk about the 60th anniversary of Medicaid. That‘s what I agreed to come to talk… and what that means in the election."
"I wanted to give you a chance to respond," Tapper replied. "He accused you of insider trading. What‘s your response to that?"
