GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: You talk about the dignity with which you handle this. You've seen the president's tweets. You've heard Republican's — Leader McCarthy wants to censure Adam Schiff. I know you support Chairman Schiff. But — was it — was it right for him to have that dramatic — reading of the president's — interpretation of the president's — transcript of the phone call at the hearing last week? Did that follow the kind of process you want?
NANCY PELOSI: I want the American people to know what that phone call was about. I want them to hear it on their — on their iPhone or whatever. I want them to see it visually. Because this was an absolute betrayal of the American people, this phone call. It was a betrayal of our national security, it was a betrayal of the integrity of elections, it was a betrayal of our Constitution. So yeah, it's fair. It's sad. But it's using the president's own words. So if he's--
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Well, those weren't the president's words. It was an interpretation of the president's words.
NANCY PELOSI: Well, it was a — you mean, the — the note? The notes from the call, is that what you're telling me?
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Yeah, when Adam Schiff went before the committee and said, "This is what the president was saying in essence." And it was — basically a dramatic reading. They're saying he made this up.
NANCY PELOSI: He did not make it up. And — and — look, I want to tell you something. When I took the oath of office to support and defend the , as my colleagues have done as well, I did not say, "I will do this as long as the Republicans can understand the Constitution."

TALKING POINTS: On ABC-News’ GMA, Pelosi defended the reprehensible actions of Adam Schiff,
who distorted Pres Trump’s words, and later said it was “parody.” Pelosi arrogantly claimed Schiff “did not embellish any of the facts.”
To his credit ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos countered:
“Those weren’t the president’s words, it was an interpretation of the president’s words. They’re saying he made this up.”
“He did not make it up,” Pelosi insisted.”I want the American people to know what that phone call was about.
I want them to hear, it. So yeah [the parody’s] fair,” Pelosi. “It’s sad, but it’s using the president’s own words.”
She then wrapped herself in the American flag and did her Patriot Act: “Look, I want to tell you something — when I took the oath of office to support and defend the Constitution as my colleagues have done as well, I did not say, I will do this as long as the Republicans can understand the Constitution.So the fact that their loyalty is to Trump and not the Constitution is not going to slow down or impair our ability to keep the Republic.”
“Pelosi defends Schiff’s version of Trump-Zelensky phone call: ‘He did not make it up’”
It was made up for him. he just had to memorize it.
“So, is she giving away that schiff-4-brains...”
I rather like the moniker “Lying sack of Schiff”. First heard on Justice with Judge Jeannine show during her opening monologue.
