Nancy Pelosi greeted by cries of impeach at California Democratic convention
House Speaker Nancy Pelosis call Saturday for a country blessed with unity was punctuated with cries of Impeach! from the crowd at the California Democratic Partys convention in San Francisco, highlighting the rifts plaguing even her own party.
Speaking to an enthusiastic crowd at the Moscone Center, the San Francisco Democrat pledged to keep the heat on President Trump.
We will go where the facts lead us. ... President Trump will be held accountable for his actions in the Congress, in the courts and in the court of public opinion, she said, while also promising, We will strive to unify, not divide, our country as we protect and defend it.
Pelosi has steadfastly insisted on sticking with House inquiries into the Trump administration on several fronts before launching any impeachment proceedings. She has left open the possibility of such proceedings, but has shown little enthusiasm for them.

(15,512 posts)Impeachment probably isn't going to happen before 2020, but it's not a bad idea to keep the pressure on the apprentice-in-chief, and Pelosi is good at doing that. That's the best way to make sure he won't there in 2020.
