“I’ve gotten a lot of feedback from my friends who work on Capitol Hill and the administration who say that they're glad I’m doing what I'm doing,” said a former member of the Trump transition team who favors impeachment.
The former deputy director of economic policy for the Trump transition team said people within the current administration support calls to impeach the president.
CNN anchor John Berman followed up, asking if people in the administration"would be in favor, then, of an impeachment?" Verret, a lifelong Republican, called for impeachment proceedings to begin in an opinion article published Tuesday in The Atlantic. In the piece, Verret said he had"never considered joining the Never Trump Republican efforts," which he regarded as unpragmatic, but that the Mueller report had served as a"tipping point."
"Trump violated that oath and put his own vanity and self-interest above that of the nation and people whose laws and Constitution he swore to faithfully execute and uphold," he also tweeted.
