Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said he is withholding judgment on whether he supports the possibility of impeaching President Donald Trump until after the Russia investigation concludes and the report is issued.

"I'm going to wait for the Mueller report," Schumer said, according to The Washington Times.

"Let's wait for the report."

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made headlines Monday when she insisted impeachment is "divisive to the country" and she is not in favor of pursuing impeachment of the sitting president.

"And he's just not worth it," she said.

With Democrats now in control of the House, they are probing into Trump's background as they search for anything that shows Trump might have broken the law. At the same time, special counsel Robert Mueller is conducting a Department of Justice investigation into whether the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to win the 2016 presidential election.

Some recent reports suggest Mueller's probe could be over soon.
