President Donald Trump said Friday that impeachment is being trivialized and
suggested that Republicans could seek revenge on the next Democratic president.
The House Judiciary Committee voted Friday morning to move forward with two articles of impeachment against Trump. Both articles, one on abuse of power and the other on obstruction of Congress, passed along party lines with a vote of 23-17.
“You’re trivializing impeachment,†Trump said while meeting with Paraguayan President Mario Abdo BenÃtez at the White House after the vote passed. “And I tell you what, some day there will be a Democrat president and there will be a Republican House, and I suspect they’re going to remember it.â€
