President Donald Trump unloaded on Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi this morning after she suggested he testify in the impeachment inquiry.
He tweeted he will “strongly consider” the idea so the “witch hunt” can end and Congress can get back to doing its job.
Pelosi said on Face the Nation Trump “could come right before the committee and talk, speak all the truth that he wants if he wants to… take the oath of office or he could do it in writing.” She noted Trump “has every opportunity to present his case.”
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer agreed with Pelosi:
“If Donald Trump doesn’t agree with what he’s hearing, doesn’t like what he’s hearing, he shouldn’t tweet. He should come to the committee and testify under oath. And he should allow all those around him to come to the committee and testify under oath,” Schumer told reporters.
The House Intelligence Committee began public hearings last week. They will head from eight officials this week, including US Ambassador to the EU Gordon Sondland.
