Nancy Pelosi has made clear -- over and over again -- that she opposes the Democratic-controlled House trying to impeach President Donald Trump right now.
"I'm not for impeachment," she told The Washington Post in March. "Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there's something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don't think we should go down that path, because it divides the country. And he's just not worth it."
And, Pelosi has, for the most part, been able to enforce that position among her House Democratic colleagues over the intervening few months -- even as special counsel Robert Mueller's report was released and showed multiple occasions in which Trump seemed to commit obstructive behavior in regard to the special counsel probe looking into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

I would say the House needs to lay a foundation before impeachment and be prepared for facing a different Republican candidate and the ongoing war being waged by Putin.
Putin is not giving up.
We are in the position of England when Neville Chamberlain returned from negotiating with Adolph Hitler
in 1938 and was lionized by the British when he claimed he had negotiated "Peace for our time."
Only trouble was Hitler lied and his war machine would soon almost conquer England.
Putin does not have a military that can defeat the US. What he does have and has honed is an ability to wage a propaganda and economic war against the US
Putin is the 3-demensional chess player of the 21st century.
