Donald Trump is compared to Jesus after impeachment
Staff writer Thu 19 Dec 2019 10:44 GMT
Evangelicals have called the impeachment of Donald Trump as a "sham" and "farce".
The Democrat-majority House of Representatives voted in favour of impeaching the US president by 230 votes to 197 for alleged abuse of power.
Speaking during the debate, Republican Barry Loudermilk, of Georgia, compared Trump to Jesus Christ standing trial before Pontius Pilate.
"When Jesus was falsely accused of treason, Pontius Pilate gave Jesus the opportunity to face his accusers," he said.
"During that sham trial, Pontius Pilate afforded more rights to Jesus than the Democrats have afforded this president and this process."
