Trying to impeach Trump would be “far more divisive” than Russia's election interference, said Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.
Senator Marco Rubio of Florida reiterated that Democrats should not try to impeach President Donald Trump, suggesting on Wednesday that impeachment would make Russian President Vladimir Putin"very happy."
Senator Kamala Harris of California, another 2020 candidate, has since joined the calls for impeachment. Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, said that Trump"deserves" impeachment but that he would leave it to Congress to decide, while Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont said that time spent focusing on impeachment would detract from policy discussions.
