(Worthy News) – The White House supports a full trial for President Trump in the Senate if the House impeaches him.
White House counsel Pat Cipollone, counselor to the president Kellyanne Conway, and the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner met with a group of GOP senators on Thursday morning to discuss impeachment strategy, according to Politico. The White House representatives told the lawmakers that Trump wants a deliberate trial and the chance to mount a defense on the merits of the case.
Trump has chosen to face a full trial despite several members of the GOP suggesting any impeachment articles brought against the president be immediately dismissed in the Senate. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
