Sen. Schumer on President's Defense Counsel

In a news conference following the first day of the opening arguments for the president's defense, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says the president's counsel helped make a compelling case for the production of documents and witnesses. He says they kept arguing that nobody knew the president's intentions, but that there are people like Mick Mulvaney and John Bolton who do know and could provide that information. "Today, we thank the president's counsel for one thing: they made our case even stronger." close
