Speaker Pelosi’s message to her members: No gloating

As the stage is set for the House to vote on articles of impeachment against him today, President Trump is holding his usual morning meeting with top aides and members of the White House counsel’s office, per a person familiar, who framed it as business as usual.

This meeting is one Trump has had almost every day for weeks now as aides have plotted their way forward after Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the impeachment inquiry in September.

Trump has spent the last 24 hours on the phone with top officials and Republican lawmakers, according to multiple people familiar with his calls. He expressed outrage at Pelosi and looked ahead to what his trial in the Senate will look like.
