TIL Desk/World/Washington/ United States President Donald Trump has said that the vote by the Democratic lawmakers in the US House of Representatives to approve the process of impeachment against him is an attack on American democracy.
The 435-member lower chamber of the US Congress on Thursday passed the measure, the third time in the history of the modern presidency, establishing rules for open hearings and the questioning of witnesses by members and staff by 232-196 votes.
Democrats enjoy majority with 233 seats in the House of Representatives while the ruling Republican, from which Trump comes, has 197 elected representatives. “They’ve been plotting to overthrow the election. Yesterday’s vote by the radical Democrats is an attack on democracy itself.
But I’ll tell you, the Republicans are really strong, the strongest I’ve ever seen and the most unified,” Trump said during his address at the “Keep America Great” rally in Tupelo, Mississippi on Friday.
