Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is urging Republicans to focus on Democrats and their tactics in seeking to mount an effective defense of President Trump on impeachment, The Hill reports.
Said one GOP lawmaker, summing up McConnell’s message: “This is going to be about process.”
“McConnell recognizes that some members of his conference are uncomfortable defending Trump on charges his administration linked aid to Ukraine to that country’s government running politically motivated investigations meant to help the White House. As a result, he’s telling his members they have plenty of reason to offer a vigorous defense of Trump, as the president publicly urged them to do Monday, by focusing on Democratic tactics that McConnell and Trump view as unfair.”
