Pelosi Says 2nd Term Could Cause ‘Irreparable Damage’

October 3, 2019 · 9:27 am ET · Leave a Comment

Speaker Nancy Pelosi insisted congressional Democrats were obligated to push forward with their impeachment inquiry regardless of its political ramifications for the 2020 election — but also warned that a second term of Donald Trump’s presidency would wreak “irreparable damage” upon the country, Politico reports.

Said Pelosi: “I will say this: Having said all of that, separate from that, the re-election of Donald Trump would do irreparable damage to the United States. We have some serious repair and healing to do in our country for what he’s done so far. I’m not sure that two terms — it might be irreparable.”
