Yes the president didn't like the fact we are throwing billions/trillions in aid to foreign countries. He also is obligated to look into any corruption claims especially if those involved are running for the presidency.

I always like it when professors come on TV and demonstrate very clearly their bias. As a parent who will be deciding soon were my children will go to university it does make my job easier. That is another University struck off my list!

Ukraine /Trump is an international issue that falls under presidential responsibilities.
The Democrats represent the people and local issues not international affairs

[NeilKudro]

If I am the president and I care about us, Americans, I will ask our top law enforcement officials to investigate any claims of corruption. if I am giving a foreign country trillions, I am obligated to initiate an inquiry, investigate, any corruption claims.

So, if this move is to undo the 2016 election, do all of the judges he appointed go back? Sweet. Thanks POTUS! I like the idea of impeaching him, then NOT sending it to the Senate. Then impeach him again. And again. No fuss, no muss. Just keep showing how little gets done because of Mitch McConnell.

I have a quote for the gentleman. They will not allow to testify. Stop twisting the truth. In other words grow some balls.

It would be addressing the many voters ⚖°¥ whom voted for him " so this would be rather sketchy ";!.

[thomassperduti]

Go on Nancy Pelosi with your bad self! Love it

If he is impeached it is the win of democracy, but if not it means the American people still has to know about democracy....

Why should Trump be allowed by partisan lawmakers to get away with his manipulations.
To encourage acts like this is to set a bad precedent for future Presidents.
Be impartial and put country before party interests.
God bless America.

Congress has done it's job. Let us see what about sent.

Zioniist games left and right on honest Americans.

[faultylog]

Impeach Trump and remove him out of the office

[robeltoburrows]

These commentators, and most politicians are still living in the 1980s, bad mouthing people like boris Johnson or Donald Trump, only increase there popularity, if I can give these so call professional politicians advise is to leave them alone? I think people are fed up of being patronised?

[jamesnelson]

POTUS was not harmed in any way other than on paper (history books) but even that can be undone sometimes you must sacrifice yourself for the greater good. the enormity of what is coming will SHOCK the WORLD

Typical professor. This is what's wrong with America ..

[stephenrioux]

It`s rather telling that the pro-Trump rallies are highly organized, but the anti-Trump rallies are predominantly ad hoc and spontaneous.
