Rep. Don Young of Alaska really didn't want to answer this one.
Rep. Don Young came up with a novel way to avoid a question about President Donald Trump on Thursday.
Instead of ignoring the activists from the progressive group MoveOn.org who were asking it, he head-butted their camera. Watch Republican Congressman @repdonyoung headbutt the camera when we asked him if it’s okay to ask foreign governments to interfere in our elections.
The question relates to Trump’s phone call in which he pressed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and son Hunter Biden. That call and the events around it ― and allegations U.S. aid was contingent upon such an investigation ― is at the heart of an impeachment inquiry against Trump, which was formalized on Thursday in a vote largely along party lines. “When you think about it, three years, all they’ve ever tried to do is get rid of Trump,” he told Alaska Public Media.
