WASHINGTON (1010 WINS) -- House Speaker Nancy Pelosi went behind closed doors on Wednesday morning, with members of her party who think it's time to begin impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.
"We believe that no one is above the law, including the president of the United States and we believe that the president of the United States is involved in a cover-up," she said.
As many as 25 presidents have called for an impeachment inquiry, but polls show public support has been decidedly mixed.
President Trump did not take kindly to Pelosi's comments.
"I have Nancy Pelosi go out and say that, 'the president of the United States engaged in a cover up,' now we've had House investigations, we've had Senate investigations, we have investigations like nobody's ever had before and there's nothing, we did nothing wrong," he said.
He proceeded to take infrastructure talks off the table until investigations against him stop.
"Instead of walking in happily to a meeting, I walk into people that just said I was doing a cover up, I don't do cover-ups, you know that better than anybody," the president said.
Schumer said the move was not spontaneous.
"When we got in the room the curtains were closed. There was a place for him at the front so he could stand and attempt to tell us why he wouldn't do infrastructure," he said.
CNN reports, a growing number of Democrats believe an impeachment is inevitable.
"I think what we have, John, is we have a situation in which I think a growing majority of our caucus believes that impeachment is going to be inevitable," House Budget Chairman John Yarmuth said." "But they also believe that we need to pursue the investigations that are going on to make sure that certain conduct of the administration and the President that they need to be held accountable for is discovered."
House Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) said there six House committees investigating the president.
"The issue now is whether or not that is something that should be done today or tomorrow, or whether or not we go through a process by which we build a foundation upon which to successfully impeach the President. So that's where we are," he said.
Pelosi said she doesn't want to impeach the president over 'politics' but that 'we're on a path.' The House Speaker called impeachment divisive, something the people wouldn't support, and destined to die in the Senate.
