The Republican Party has 'turned itself into a cult of the President's personality,' said Schiff.
Congressman Adam Schiff, chair of the House Intelligence Committee, said Sunday that while he believes that President Donald Trump has acted in ways that may merit impeachment, the process of removing the president from office is likely to be unsuccessful because of what Schiff dubbed a"cult" surrounding Trump's personality.
Appearing on ABC's This Week Sunday morning, Schiff tried to explain to host George Stephanopolous why he was among those high-ranking Democrats who were not stoking the impeachment flames. He continued:"We have to figure out in that context: Is this the right thing for the country, and I'm just not convinced — not yet — that's the case."
“We will build an ironclad case to act,” Pelosi said on Saturday. “President Trump will be held accountable for his actions. In the Congress, in the courts and in the court of public opinion, we will defend our democracy.”
