Pelosi: "We have to pray" for President Trump's health [View all]

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said "we have to pray" for President Trump's health after what she described as a "meltdown" by the president during a meeting at the White House on Wednesday.

"I pray for the president all the time, and I tell him that. I pray for his safety and that of his family. Now we have to pray for his health, because this was a very serious meltdown on the part of the president," Pelosi said at a press conference after returning to the Capitol.

While Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Trump used the phrase "third-rate politician," Pelosi told reporters back at the Capitol that the president called her a "third grade politician."

The meeting came shortly after the House voted 354-60 to pass a resolution rebuking Trump's decision to withdraw U.S. troops from northern Syria.
