White House responds: This is "one of the most shameful political episodes in the history of our nation"
The White House just released a statement following the impeachment of President Trump, calling it"one of the most shameful political episodes in the history of our nation." "Today marks the culmination in the House of one of the most shameful political episodes in the history of our Nation. Without receiving a single Republican vote, and without providing any proof of wrongdoing, Democrats pushed illegitimate articles of impeachment against the President through the House of Representatives. Democrats have chosen to proceed on this partisan basis in spite of the fact that the President did absolutely nothing wrong.
The statement went on to call the impeachment a"sham" that denied the President"fundamental fairness and due process under the law.""All of these antics make clear that Democrats have lost sight of what this country needs, which is a Congress that works for the people. Their boundless animus for President Trump fuels their desire to nullify the 2016 election results, and improperly influence the 2020 election.
