Despite this dispute, in the interview that aired Sunday on CBS, Pelosi claimed that cooperation between the two is still possible.

“I respect the office he holds,” she said, “He’s not worth the trouble of saying you’re so horrible we can’t work together. No, we need to work together.”

At the end of the interview, Stahl asked Pelosi what the future of our political system would be like.

“Well, I think our future – is strong enough – built on a strong foundation to withstand everything including the current occupant of the White House,” Pelosi said, “I don’t think for two terms though.”
