House Impeaches Trump While He Tries to Turn It Into a Rally
The House voted on December 18, 2019 to impeach Donald Trump on abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, and Trump spent the evening trying to convert that historic setback into campaign theater. He was onstage at a rally in Battle Creek, Michigan as the vote landed, reading the result aloud to supporters and telling them he was still having a good time. That is not exactly the posture of a president in command of events. It is the posture of a man trying to drown out a crisis with applause.
