Nancy Pelosi says President Trump 'so much worse' than Nixon

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday insisted President Trump was "So much worse" than Richard Nixon - suggesting he would quit the White House if he cared about the US. "It's really a sad thing," Pelosi said on CBS' "Face the Nation," calling Trump an "Imposter" who was "Way over his head" as commander in chief.

"I mean, what the president did was so much worse than even what Richard Nixon did, that at some point Richard Nixon cared about the country enough to recognize that this could not continue," she said of the only US president to ever resign from office.

"This is about our democracy that is at risk with this president in the White House."

Pelosi also hit back at complaints that the hearings were unfairly one-sided, making it impossible for the president to get a fair hearing.

"The president could come right before the committee and talk, speak all the truth that he wants if he wants - if he wants to take the oath of office or he could do it in writing," she said.

"I think even his most ardent supporters have to honestly admit this is the wrong thing for the president to do," she told "Face the Nation."

"Along with most people, I find the president's tweets generally unfortunate," Rep. Mike Turner, told CNN's "State of the Union."
