House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comment this week that she would rather see President Donald Trump “in prison” than impeached “shows the true colors of the Democratic Party,” the White House said Thursday.

“How shocking," White House director of strategic communications Mercedes Schlapp said sarcastically in an interview on Fox News. "The Democrats are radical and out of touch. They're more focused on attacking this president, undermining this president, than they are to solving the major problems that we're seeing in the United States.”

Pelosi made the comment during a meeting Tuesday night in which she clashed with House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler about whether to open an impeachment inquiry into the president. Pelosi, who’s resisted a growing chorus of calls for impeachment from her caucus, remained firm in that she wants to see Trump defeated at the ballot box next year, when he would then be free from the Justice Department’s restraints on indicting a sitting president.

“I don’t want to see him impeached, I want to see him in prison,” Pelosi said at that meeting, multiple Democratic sources familiar with the meeting told POLITICO.

Russia. Who gives a fuck what she thinks?
