Impeachment: Democrats say conduct is ‘not America first, but Trump first’
- House managers make case for president’s removal from office
- So far, all the signs are that Republicans are unmoved
In a stirring oration to conclude the third full day of Donald Trump’s impeachment trial, the lead prosecutor Adam Schiff told senators that in the United States, “right matters” and “you know that what he did was not right”.
After about nine hours of argumentation in which Democrats methodically presented evidence that Trump had committed an abuse of power by pressuring Ukraine for his personal political benefit, Schiff urged the Senate to remove Trump from office.
