Nancy Pelosi floated the theory that Vladimir Putin likely held “something financial” over Donald Trump during his presidency.
In an interview with Jen Psaki, Pelosi mused about what Putin had on Trump to make him constantly cater to the Russian president.
“What does he have on Donald Trump that he has to constantly be catering to Putin? Telling Putin go into these countries, NATO countries,” Pelosi said.

When asked her thoughts, Pelosi speculated it was “probably financial,” suggesting Putin had financial leverage or expected future financial gain from Trump.
However, Pelosi also went off on tangents about ensuring Trump never holds office again and recounting stories about Abraham Lincoln, diverting from answering Psaki’s direct question about what Putin potentially had over Trump.
“What do you think? We’re all wondering this question, Speaker Pelosi, what do you think Putin has on him? I mean, it sure seems like something, as you’ve said a few times, given that he refuses to criticize him, that he seems to be a fanboy of him. Are you worried?” Jen Psaki asked.
“First of all, we must be sure that he does not step one foot into the White House. Not as president or not as anything. He has brought disgrace to the White House, to these presidents,” Pelosi said.
“I talked about George Washington, it’s also Presidents Week for Abraham Lincoln,” Pelosi said. “He gave his life to unify our country.”
“Now we have someone who had the honor of serving in the White House, didn’t consider it an honor, didn’t consider his oath of office to protect and defend the Constitution, and on this week speaking out the way he did about [Alexei] Navalny shows you that he is a person without values.”
“He looks like he is going to be a person without dollars either, but the values are what concern us,” Pelosi said. “I don’t know what he has on him, but I think it’s probably financial, I think it’s probably financial — either something financial or something on the come — something that he expects to get.”
