Pelosi tells Dems she wants to see Trump ‘in prison’
The Politico ^ | June 5, 2019 | Heather Caygle

Speaker Nancy Pelosi told senior Democrats that she’d like to see President Donald Trump “in prison” as she clashed with House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler in a meeting on Tuesday night over whether to launch impeachment proceedings.

Pelosi met with Nadler (D-N.Y.) and several other top Democrats who are aggressively pursuing investigations against the president, according to multiple sources. Nadler and other committee leaders have been embroiled in a behind-the-scenes turf battle for weeks over ownership of the Democrats’ sprawling investigation into Trump.

Nadler pressed Pelosi to allow his committee to launch an impeachment inquiry against Trump — the second such request he’s made in recent weeks only to be rebuffed by the California Democrat and other senior leaders. Pelosi stood firm, reiterating that she isn’t open to the idea of impeaching Trump at this time.

“I don’t want to see him impeached, I want to see him in prison,” Pelosi said, according to multiple Democratic sources familiar with the meeting. Instead of impeachment, Pelosi still prefers to see Trump defeated at the ballot box and then prosecuted for his alleged crimes, according to the sources.

They said she was expressing solidarity with pro-impeachment Democrats who want to hold the president accountable while disputing the idea that it is now time to take that step. Pelosi has long argued that certain conditions must be met before Democrats begin impeachment — public support and strong bipartisan backing, neither of which have so far materialized.

“she wants to see Trump ‘in prison’”

Once she’s in prison, I’m sure he’d be happy to drop by, so she could see him.

Personally, I would enjoy seeing Pelosi’s head on a pike. If these assholes continue their drive to destroy our Republic, I'm of the opinion that I will see the former in my lifetime.

The very thought that could happen makes me smile, then chuckle, then break out in laughter and spill my drink. I hope he posts the video on YouTube. It’s bound to be a hit. Oops gotta get another beer.

I’d like to see her...headstone. She is a huge traitor to the U.S. and doesn’t deserve to use up our oxygen any more. Ditto Nadler, Schiff, Schumer, Waters, Cummings, Lee, et al. Traitors all.

In prison for being a Republican. Just like all liberals want to see conservatives in a gulag or a death camp.
