Congress From ‘He’s just not worth it’ to ‘I want him in prison’ – How Nancy’s Pelosi’s impeachment talk has changed The speaker has consistently said she won’t impeach Trump, but her rhetoric against the president has become more savage.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has remained firm in her opposition to seeking President Donald Trump’s impeachment, but she’s walked a careful rhetorical line — at times channeling the left’s anger to accuse Trump of crimes worthy of impeachment, at others urging her most hot-blooded colleagues to slow down and wait for more facts.

Her evolving language has accompanied a slow succession of Democrats who have embraced impeachment proceedings despite her opposition.
