House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) believes her conversations with President Donald Trump should remain public amid the coronavirus outbreak.

MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace asked Pelosi if she would be willing to pick up the phone and call Trump directly to encourage him to put aside their differences and focus on creating a vaccine and enacting the Defense Production Act.

Pelosi explained she is not sure a phone call would change his behavior.

“Well let me say worth. What is the word worth? Would it change his behavior?” Pelosi said.

She added, “Has he ever said anything in our meetings that we’ve had about Dreamers, that he was going to get the job done and then he changed his mind. What he said about infrastructure and then changed his mind. What he said about guns and then he changed his mind.”

Watch her comments below:

Does @SpeakerPelosi think it's worth picking up the phone to call the president? She tells @NicolleDWallace it's not.

She reiterated conversations she has with the president are better left in a public setting.

“Time is the most finite quantity that we all have. My time, I think, is better spent speaking to this president in a public forum,” Pelosi said. “That’s something he pays attention to.”

Pelosi noted she has communication with the Trump administration to work in a bipartisan way and she referenced the first four coronavirus relief packages as evidence they can do so.

She has previously expressed her disappointment with Trump’s plan to combat the coronavirus.

Pelosi took aim at Trump for his controversial coronavirus treatment suggestions, as IJR previously reported.

Trump suggested during a coronavirus task force briefing that leading health officials look into using disinfectant injections and light as potential treatment options.

She has also weighed in on Trump’s plan for a national coronavirus testing strategy, calling him a “total failure” and a “poor leader,” as IJR previously reported.
