“[Trump] doesn’t seem to understand that a fundamental aspect of his job is to try to make us a more perfect union,' the congressman said.
Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff voiced concerned Sunday that the United States would not be able to “survive another four years” of President Donald Trump, warning that the president has divided Americans instead of uniting them.
“I don’t think this country could survive another four years of a president like this, who gets up every day trying to find new and inventive ways to divide us,” the congressman warned. “He doesn’t seem to understand that a fundamental aspect of his job is to try to make us a more perfect union. But that’s not at all where he’s coming from.”
The House Judiciary Committee voted last week to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt for rejecting subpoenas to testify and to give Congress access to the full, unredacted Mueller report. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat who represents California, warned that lawmakers may hold more Trump officials in contempt for refusing to comply and preventing Congress from performing its oversight duties laid out in the Constitution.
