\u201cI don\u2019t want to see him impeached, I want to see him in prison,\u201d\u00a0she said, according to multiple Democratic sources familiar with the meeting.

IMPEACHMENT DAM BREAKING AS PELOSI DEPUTIES TIP HAND: \u2018WE\u2019VE ALREADY BEGUN\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Pelosi wants to hold the president accountable, the sources said, but thinks voters should get him out of office in 2020, after which\u00a0he could possibly face criminal charges.<\/p>\n

Nadler and dozens of Democrats have been pressing Pelosi to hold impeachment hearings, but the speaker reportedly believes there should be public and bipartisan support to launch the process, according to Politico<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pelosi has previously said the president\u2019s actions \u201care villainous to the Constitution of the United States.”<\/p>\n

A Pelosi spokesperson told the New York Post<\/a> the lawmakers\u00a0\u201chad a productive meeting about the state of play with the Mueller report. They agreed to keep all options on the table and continue to move forward with an aggressive hearing and legislative strategy, as early as next week, to address the president\u2019s corruption and abuses of power uncovered in the report.\u201d<\/p>\n

The spokesperson did not directly address whether Pelosi made the remark about Trump that was attributed to her.<\/p>\n
