Trump Dismisses Calls to Impeach Him

September 24, 2019 · 10:20 am ET · Leave a Comment

President Trump scoffed at the mounting calls for impeachment proceedings from House Democrats as he faces increasing scrutiny for his interactions with Ukraine, The Hill reports.

Said Trump: “I think it’s ridiculous. It’s a witch hunt. I’m leading in the polls. They have no idea how they stop me the only way they can try is through impeachment.”

He added: “It’s nonsense, and when you see the call, when you see the readout of the call, which I assume you’ll see at some point, you’ll understand. That call was perfect.”
