Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who also represents President Donald Trump as an attorney, said despite her claims that she is waiting until the conclusion of special counsel Robert Muller’s Russia probe, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wanted to impeach Trump.
Giuliani said, “You have people like Maxine Waters, and I would have to be an idiot not to hear what they’re saying. She basically wrote off the Constitution saying high crime and misdemeanors, treason and bribery. She says we can impeach him for anything we want.”
Guest host Dana Bash said, “To be clear, and you know this, the leaders of the Democratic Party right now are saying, we aren’t going there, but let’s move on from that.”
Giuliani shot back,”I have to listen to all the people in the Democratic party, not just the leaders. And they could be lying. They could be lying because they don’t want it as a campaign issue. You don’t think Nancy Pelosi wants to impeach him? Give me a break.”
