Democrats, however, say that the Mueller report has demonstrated in detail that Trump is unfit for office.
President Donald Trump said on Monday that Congress “can’t impeach” him over the findings of the Mueller report into Russian election meddling and his alleged attempts to hamper the investigation.
“Only high crimes and misdemeanors can lead to impeachment. There were no crimes by me , so you can’t impeach,” Trump stated earlier on Twitter. The report also found that Trump’s campaign took advantage of the impact on Clinton, but did not deliberately reach out to collude with the Russians.But Mueller did not rule one way or the other on whether Trump had committed the crime of obstruction of justice.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that Democratic leaders would hold a conference call on Monday to discuss strategy. Democrats, however, say that the report has demonstrated in detail that Trump is unfit for office, even if the evidence would be insufficient to prove crimes in court.
