The president, who said in the Oval Office moments after the letter was publicized that he takes "zero" responsibility for facing impeachment, instead accused Democrats of committing the same actions they have alleged Trump is guilty of.
Democrats are going to try to “Kavanaugh” the Impeachment Trial with new accusations . . . "The most dangerous place on earth, Bob Dole wisely observed, is between Chuck Schumer and the TV cameras.“I write to express my strongest and most powerful protest against thepartisan impeachment crusade being pursued by the Democrats in the House of Representatives. This impeachment represents an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power by the Democrat lawmakers, unequaled in nearly two and half centuries of American legislative history,” begins the letter.“This is nothing more than an illegal, partisan attempted coup that will, based on recent sentiment, badly fail at the voting both. You are not just after me, as President, you are after the entire Republican Party,” Trump wrote. “History will judge you harshly as you proceed with this impeachment charade.”“I have no doubt the American people will hold you and the Democrats fully responsible in the upcoming 2020 election. They will not soon forgive your perversion of justice and abuse of power,” he added.Read the full letter here.
"Not surprisingly, while Mitch McConnell usually gets his way, Schumer gets the headlines and TV coverage.
"Schumer did that again today with his demand for a “fair” trial, meaning to Schumer that Democrats get to reopen the investigation of Trump during the trial, including calling witnesses who did not testify, and doing the job the House Democrats failed to do. A do-over." . . .
