The president spent nearly an hour on 'Fox and Friends' this morning riffing on topics from Nancy Pelosi to Hong Kong in what one co-host called a 'stress release'
One day after the wrap of the first phase of public impeachment hearings, President Donald Trump unloaded to Fox News, declaring he wants a Senate trial, pushing a debunked theory that Ukraine has a DNC server, and deeming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi “crazy as a bedbug.”
The expansive remarks by the president came during a roughly hour-long phone call to “Fox & Friends,” in an exercise co-host Brian Kilmeade dubbed “a stress release.”“Frankly, I want a trial,” Trump said, while asserting that no evidence existed to warrant his removal from office and insisting there should “never be an impeachment.
“Well, there's only one person I want more than ‘Where's Hunter,’” Trump said, referring to former Vice President Joe Biden’s son. “The one I want to testify most is ‘Shifty Schiff,’ and I want to find out why did he make up my statement?” Trump said. “He made up my statement, and I want to find that out. Why did ‘Shifty Schiff’ — who's a crooked politician, he's a corrupt politician — why did he make up my statement?”
The president in recent weeks has repeatedly needled Schiff for reading aloud an exaggerated version of Trump’s July phone call with Ukraine’s leader, during which he pressured his foreign counterpart to investigate political rivals including the Bidens.
