Take the Hint People! Nancy Pelosi Tells Reporters Impeaching Trump May Be ‘Unavoidable’
“You said that the president may have engaged in impeachable offenses, yet today you are saying you’re not on a path to impeachment,” CNN’s Manu Raju said, and asked “Can you explain why you are opposed to launching an impeachment inquiry when many of your members want to do it?”
“Let me be really very clear,” Pelosi said. “The president’s behavior in terms of his obstruction of justice, the things that he is doing, it’s very clear, it’s in plain sight, it cannot be denied. Ignores subpoenas, obstruction of justice. Yes, these could be impeachable offenses.”
“You might understand it better if you remember these three things,” Pelosi continued. “We want to follow the facts to get the truth to the American people. With a recognition, two, that no one is above the law.”
“And three, that the president is engaged in a cover-up,” Pelosi said. “And that is what my statement is. How we deal with it, is a decision that our caucus makes, and our caucus is very much saying whatever we do, we need to be ready when we do it.”
“And I do think that impeachment is a very divisive place to go in our country,” Pelosi said, and concluded by adding “But we can get the facts to the American people through our investigation, that may take us to a place that is unavoidable in terms of impeachment, or not. But we’re not at that place.”
