Pelosi delivered the following remarks last week:
“Impeachment is so divisive to the country; unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path. It divides the country.”
The House Speaker may not favor impeachment, but not all Democrats share this outlook. Shortly after being elected to the House of Representatives, Rashida Tlaib vowed to “impeach the motherf*cker.” Likewise, other outspoken leftists such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Maxine Waters have called to impeach President Trump.
The president has previously brushed off calls for his impeachment. According to Trump, it’s tough to impeach someone who is doing “such a great job.”
Talk of impeachment remains ongoing with the 2020 presidential election right around the corner.
