Impeachment talk is racing around Washington. But in the White House, aides aren’t thinking much about impeachment
And even if the Democrats did, they think it would be a political gift to the president, according three people familiar with the White House’s plans on the issue. One administration official said the White House is so unconcerned that it does not currently have a strategy in place for responding to potential impeachment proceedings.
Pelosi and other Democratic leaders argue that impeachment is a step that would be too divisive for the country, and that their party would be better off letting voters rebuke Trump at the ballot box. In a letter to her colleagues on Monday, Pelosi encouraged them to consider other ways that they might punish Trump for his “highly unethical and unscrupulous behavior” documented in Mueller’s report.
“Only high crimes and misdemeanors can lead to impeachment. There were no crimes by me , so you can’t impeach,” he wrote. “It was the Democrats that committed the crimes, not your Republican President! Tables are finally turning on the Witch Hunt!”
