Trump says will ‘strongly consider’ testifying in impeachment probe
WASHINGTON, Nov 18, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – President Donald Trump on Monday said
he is “strongly” considering answering a challenge from opposition Democrats
to testify in his own impeachment investigation.
After the speaker of the lower house, Nancy Pelosi, upped the ante by
suggesting that Trump come forward to tell the “truth,” the Republican
president said he was keen.
Pelosi suggested “that I testify about the phony Impeachment Witch Hunt.
She also said I could do it in writing,” Trump tweeted.
“Even though I did nothing wrong, and don’t like giving credibility to
this No Due Process Hoax, I like the idea & will, in order to get Congress
focused again, strongly consider it!”
