JUST IN: The House of Representatives has approved a resolution to formalize the procedures of the impeachment inquiry into President Trump. It passed with a vote of 232-196.
President Trump's campaign called the just-passed House impeachment inquiry resolution"an attempt to remove a duly-elected president for strictly political reasons." "Today’s vote merely proves that the entire impeachment process was a sham from the beginning," Trump's 2020 campaign manager, Brad Parscale, said in a statement.
“Every American can see this for what it is: an attempt to remove a duly-elected president for strictly political reasons by a strictly partisan, illegitimate process. Today’s vote merely proves that the entire impeachment process was a sham from the beginning and Nancy Pelosi can’t legitimize it after the fact. We can all read the transcript of the Ukraine phone call for ourselves and see that there was no quid pro quo and no basis at all for overturning the legitimate results of the 2016 election. Voters will punish Democrats who support this farce and President Trump will be easily re-elected.”
