Pelosi's remarks came in a meeting on Tuesday with top House Democrats, including Judiciary Committee chair Jerrold Nadler, who is aggressively pushing for impeachment.
'I don't want to see him impeached, I want to see him in prison,' Pelosi said in the closed-door meeting, multiple Democratic sources familiar with the meeting told the outlet.
Pelosi, who fears political disaster if impeachment proceedings are launched without broad public support, argued that it would be better to see Trump defeated in the next election and then criminally prosecuted as a private citizen.

'I call her "Nervous Nancy",' Trump told a Fox News Channel interviewer on the sidelines of observances marking the 75th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.
'Nancy Pelosi is a disaster, ok? She’s a disaster. Let her do what she wants, you know what? I think they’re in big trouble,' Trump said of Pelosi and the House Democrats who are chomping at the bit for an impeachment to begin.

Pelosi has a rough job. She is trying to herd a large number of psychotic cats into more-or-less the same direction. She is not a stupid politician and she believes (probably accurately) that an impeachment attempt, let alone an actual impeachment vote, will make Trump stronger rather than weaker and will very likely cost her her cushy speaker gig next year. That is the trouble with owning a tiger. If you don't throw it some red meat once in a while it may eat you.
