Bookmark:White House: The Democrats are “motivated by a sick hatred” for Trump
Trump’s press secretary Stephanie Grisham said in a statement: “These two witnesses, just like the rest, have no personal or direct knowledge regarding why U.S. aid was temporarily withheld.”
She accused House Democrats leading the impeachment inquiry of “being motivated by a sick hatred for President Trump and their rabid desire to overturn the 2016 election.” And echoing House Intelligence chair Adam Schiff, Grisham said: “The American people deserve better.”
Schiff closed the last day of scheduled public impeachment hearings by saying, “There is nothing more dangerous than an unethical president who believes they are above the law,” Schiff says. “We are better than that.”
