The question is, why are Republicans placing this president above their oath of office?

That has Democrats crying foul, with one congresswoman calling for McConnell to recuse himself.

McConnell won't have carte blanche under the Constitution.

When the President of the United States has tried,

I think this is the beginning of the end for this show trial that we've seen in the House.

I think it's going to come to the Senate.

We're going to have fair proceedings.

Today, a new poll from Fox News shows more registered voters than not favor impeaching and removing Trump from office,

which led President Trump to attack his favorite network today,

The president and his allies are putting pressure on more than two dozen Democrats running for re-election in districts Trump won,

Now the freshman Democrat facing a tough re-election fight is expected to cross the aisle

and join the Republican Party ahead of Wednesday's vote.

President Trump tweeted today, wow, that would be big.
