Efforts by “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and other Democrats to impeach President Donald Trump, with one key Democrat senator declaring the scheme “dead on arrival.”
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) shut down rumors that Democrats would push Republicans to launch new impeachment proceedings.
“Of course, no [he should not be impeached],” Fetterman told Fox News. “She knows it. I know it. We all know it… that is not going anywhere. He has been impeached twice, and now he is still our president as well, so it is not going anywhere, and I do not think [bringing it up is] helpful.”
Fetterman also warned that throwing the word “impeachment” around so casually only cheapens its meaning.
“I think if you throw that term around, that actually diminishes the severity of what impeachment is really reserved for,” he said.
