President Donald Trump and his allies weren't shy about using the specter of impeachment during the 2018 midterm campaign to rally the President's core supporters to the polls.
And for their 2020 campaign, they were prepared to use the real thing. With House Democrats newly in the majority and the prospects of impeachment surging, Trump and his political allies -- while certainly not hankering for it -- have eyed the potential political upside: using a Democratic impeachment as a powerful foil to galvanize Republicans in droves to re-elect Trump.
Several of the President's political advisers, preparing for a re-election campaign focused on boosting turnout among the President's base of supporters, have looked to the possibility of Trump's impeachment as an opportunity to cast Trump as a victim of Washington politics and overzealous Democrats, three sources close to the White House and the campaign said. And with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation -- which Trump has frequently cast on the campaign trail as a "witch hunt" -- expected to end soon, Trump is looking for a new boogeyman.
But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is throwing cold water on those prospects, declaring in an interview published Monday that she is "not for impeachment."

These lame brains are still so ticked off that Trump beat Hillary that they’re coming out with all sorts of things for impeachment. 0bama should have been impeached for what he did and sent back to Nigeria or where ever the heck he came from.
The prospects of an impeachment ATTEMPT are pretty good. The libs have been rantasizing about that for two-plus years now.
Do it.
I for one welcome your “Dick Move”.
You will be swamped Epically in 2020...
In fact, it will Apocryphal....
But will Nadlebrained be able to stop himself?
I think Botoxic is too smart to allow a vote on this. She knows it would hive Trump 30 more electoral votes.
Impeachment worked out well for Slick politically.
That's funny but very true.
If this story is true about Nancy “throwing cold water” on the impeachment...think about this:
I don’t care what anyone thinks about impeachment being a winner campaign strategy.....NO PRESIDENT wants that crap hanging around him. So.....if Nancy thinks saying impeachment is off the table, here’s what I think:
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP WANTED.
Well played, Mr. President.
Impeachment worked out well for Slick politically.

Yes it did and there were actually grounds for removing Clinton from office. Trump hasn’t done anything other than annoy democrats and they still want to impeach him. Go ahead I say, it’ll get him re-elected in a landslide.
