WASHINGTON - U.S. lawmakers who control the fate of President Donald Trump left Washington for a holiday break on Friday with no agreement over how they will handle the Senate trial to consider his impeachment charges in January.
Republicans and Democrats are at loggerheads over how the Senate trial will play out. Democrats want to call top Trump aides as witnesses, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has not yet sent the impeachment package over to the Senate in a bid to ramp up the pressure. Trump has dismissed his impeachment as a partisan effort to undo his surprise 2016 election. He says he did nothing wrong.
Trump is also charged with obstruction of Congress for directing administration officials and agencies not to cooperate with the impeachment inquiry. “This impeachment process is more important than anyone’s schedule,” one of those candidates, Senator Amy Klobuchar, said on Thursday.
