Branding Trump a Danger, calling him a ‘dictator’, Democrats Cap the Case for His Removal
< < Go Back
On the final day of their oral arguments, House impeachment managers called President Trump a danger to the nation.
The House impeachment managers concluded their arguments against President Trump on Friday with a forceful plea for the Senate to call witnesses, while portraying his pressure campaign on Ukraine as part of a dangerous pattern of Russian appeasement that demanded his removal from office.
“This is Trump first, not America first, not American ideals first,” said Representative Adam B. Schiff of California, the lead House manager. “And the result has been, and will continue to be, grave harm to our nation if this chamber does not stand up and say this is wrong.”
“He is a dictator,” said Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York. “This must not stand.”
