Washington — the House of representatives of the United States voted on Wednesday to effectively bring down for now a resolution of impeachment against the President, Donald Trump, but without bury the issue that has divided Democrats.

The author of the resolution, Democratic Rep. Al Green, sought to capitalize on growing criticism against Trump after the recent attacks he made to Mrs Democrats who belong to minorities.

Asked by reporters at the Capitol on Wednesday morning if she supported the Green resolution, Pelosi said: "no, I do not support ... My position surprise you? ".

James Clyburn, Democrat number 3 and an important ally of Pelosi, said she preferred that the resolution was waived. "I don't think we're ready to discuss it at the moment," he said.

Clyburn added that part of the reason for this was that Mueller should testify to Congress next week.
