(CNN) House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the president is “bankrupt of any ideas” whenever he accuses the Democratic Party of pushing an anti-Semitic agenda and flatly denied the party was growing more hostile to Jews.
“We have no taint of that in the Democratic Party, and just because they want to accuse somebody of that doesn’t mean … that we take that bait,” Pelosi said Tuesday in a wide-ranging interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour in Dublin, Ireland.
Pelosi is currently leading a congressional delegation on a trip that has so far taken them to US European and Africa[n] military commands based in Stuttgart, Germany. They’ve also stopped in London to meet with government leaders and civil society leaders, and they will also visit Northern Ireland.
