Democratic Representative Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki appeared on MSNBC’s “The Insider Interview” to discuss President Donald Trump’s alleged connection to Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Both Pelosi and Psaki made false claims about a recent statement made by Trump, knowingly spreading misinformation.
They then used this fabricated narrative to further smear Trump with another false accusation. Their focus was on a statement Trump made about NATO during a rally earlier this month. Trump had urged other NATO member states to contribute their fair share for defense purposes, emphasizing that American taxpayers should not bear the entire burden.
“NATO was busted until I came along,” Trump said.
“I said, ‘Everybody’s gonna pay.’
“They said, ‘Well, if we don’t pay, are you still going to protect us?’
“I said, ‘Absolutely not.’
“They couldn’t believe the answer,” Trump revealed.
Nevertheless, Democrats and their accomplices in the corporate media have not only distorted Trump’s words, but they have also concocted entirely false aspects of his speech. The deceptive Left is asserting that Trump actually encouraged Putin to invade NATO countries and their allies.
However, upon watching the video provided below, it becomes evident that Trump never once advocated for Putin or any other individual to invade a NATO country or its ally.

Yet despite this, Pelosi went on national TV to perpetuate the big lie:
