Nancy Pelosi Says This About Impeaching Trump: ‘He’s Just Not Worth It’
In a fascinating interview with the Washington Post, Nancy Pelosi touched on a litany of topics, the biggest one being Donald Trump and the likelihood of the Democratic controlled House of Representatives drawing up Articles of Impeachment.
Here is the critical exchange that has really divided people:
HELM: Do you feel that he has done anything that has been good for America?
PELOSI: He’s been a great organizer for Democrats, a great fundraiser for Democrats and a great mobilizer at the grass-roots level for Democrats. [Laughs.] And I think that’s good for America.
HELM: There have been increasing calls, including from some of your members, for impeachment of the president.
PELOSI: I’m not for impeachment. This is news. I’m going to give you some news right now because I haven’t said this to any press person before. But since you asked, and I’ve been thinking about this: Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country. And he’s just not worth it.
Later in the interview, they revisited impeachment:
HELM: You said earlier you don’t feel it’s worth it to pursue impeachment. Do you believe he’s fit to be president?
