Former Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) told Fox Newsās Sean Hannity on Thursday that Democrats are not trying to remove President Donald Trump with impeachment, but instead are focused on kneecapping his second term by flipping the Senate so he canāt get anything done.
āLetās skip over the process,ā Gowdy said. āThe process, the three month long inquiry investigation was laughable. But they voted. Thatās the Houseās prerogative. They voted, not a single Republican went along with them. In fact, they didnāt even keep all the Democrats. But the House exercised its prerogative and they impeached the president.ā
āThere is no mathematical way he is ever going to be convicted and they know that,ā Gowdy continued. āSo their goal cannot be to remove Donald Trump from office, it is to neuter his second term. I think he is going to win in November. Itās to neuter that second term by targeting the Cory Gardners and the Martha McSallys and the Thom Tillises and the Susan Collins and Joni Ernst because if Trump wins and doesnāt have the Senate then he is not going to get any judicial vacancies filled and heās not going to replace a Supreme Court Justice if he or she retires.ā ā READ MORE
