On Saturday, Amash became the first Republican member of Congress to publicly argue that Trump engaged in impeachable conduct while in the Oval Office.
President Donald Trump wasted no time blasting Congressman Justin Amash, who on Saturday became the first Republican representative to publicly argue that Trump engaged in impeachable conduct while in the Oval Office.
The documents, he said, led him to conclude that Attorney General William Barr deliberately misrepresented the report’s findings and that Trump engaged in impeachable conduct. He also surmised that few members of Congress have read the report, and that “partisanship has eroded our system of checks and balances.”
The Twitter thread quickly went viral, earning accolades from those who said it was refreshing to see a politician abandon partisanship. Other prominent Republicans—including Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel—took a harsher approach and slammed Amash for seemingly siding with Democrats.
