House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Thursday that talk about impeaching President Trump is only going to help Republicans in the midterm elections, and tried to “discourage” House Democratic members from broaching the subject.

“On the political side, I think it’s a gift to Republicans to talk about impeachment,” Pelosi told reporters when asked about comments made by former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid this week.
