1:39Now PlayingHouse Speaker Nancy Pelosi says witness intimidation is a crime.
But she's stopping just short of saying that President Donald Trump crossed that line with a tweet attacking the former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine as she testified in the House impeachment hearings.
The California Democrat told reporters she'd not seen Trump's tweet. He wrote that every country where Marie Yovanovitch worked as an envoy "turned bad."
Asked if that tweet was witness intimidation, Pelosi said, "Witness intimidation is a crime."
She said one question was if such actions by Trump were "keeping people from giving facts and then saying, 'You don't have the facts.'"
Asked if Trump's tweet was appropriate, she says, "Appropriate and president in the same sentence? Come on. Why would we start making that judgment now?"
