Trump: ‘It’s a Shame’ that Dealing with Pelosi, Schumer Was Far Tougher than Dealing with China, North Korea

TRANSCRIPT:

TRUMP: "A friend of mine, very successful guy, used to call me Don, Donnie, Donald. Now, he said, 'Mr. President...' You know, you lose all your friends. Because you're president, they're all afraid to talk to you. 'Mr. President, could I ask you one question? What’s the toughest — who is the toughest to deal with? Was it China? Could it be Putin and Russia? What about North Korea, Kim Jong-un? I said, 'Well, the toughest actually was the United States, dealing with these maniacs that we have over here with Pelosi and Schumer and all of them.' That was probably the toughest. Far tougher than a lot of world leaders. And isn’t that a shame when you think about it? Isn't it a shame?"
