On Sunday, during an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) did not rule out the possibility of impeaching President Donald Trump if Democrats take control of Congress.
Host Dana Bash asked him: “Your colleague from Georgia, Senator Jon Ossoff told voters at a town hall that he strongly agrees that President Trump should be impeached. Do you agree with him? Would that be a priority if Democrats were to take back Congress?”
Schumer replied: “Well, look, right now, President Trump is violating rule of law in every way and we’re fighting him every single day in every way.”
“And our goal is to show the American people over and over again, whether it’s the economy, whether it’s tariffs, whether it’s Russia and overseas and whether it’s rule of law, how bad he is. And you know, it’s two years it’s too far away to predict,” he continued.
“Our job is day to day to day to show who Trump is, what he is doing, and it’s having an effect as your polls show,” he added.
Host Dana Bash said: “You’re not ruling out.”
Schumer continued: “The American people are realizing.”
Host Dana Bash again: “You’re not saying no.”
Schumer said: “Look, it’s too far away to even, it’s too far away to even judge.”
