At the weekly Republican lunch on Tuesday, just before the historic impeachment trial of President Trump began, multiple senators had concerns to share with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
Washington At the weekly Republican lunch on Tuesday, just before the historic impeachment trial of President Donald Trump began, multiple senators had concerns to share with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
The previous night, McConnell had introduced his resolution laying out the rules for how the trial would unfold. Under McConnell's plan, opening statements would be condensed into just two calendar days, drawing outrage from Democrats who argued McConnell was rushing the trial and trying to push the debate into the middle of the night when most Americans would be asleep. It turns out that it wasn't just Democrats who were unhappy with McConnell.
Schumer calls on 4 GOP members to 'resist McConnell's cover-up' 02:26 On Tuesday morning, Minority Leader Chuck Schumer had sharply criticized McConnell's resolution from the Senate floor, saying it would"result in a rushed trial with little evidence, in the dark of night." By Tuesday afternoon, Schumer seemed at least slightly appeased.
