'The president is as he usually is or often is, disgusting and racist,' Nadler said, labeling Trump's Cummings attacks a 'distraction.'
Nadler continued,"The fact is, the president accepted help from the Russians to attack our election to work with his campaign to work with the Russians, that is undisputed. He worked hard to cover up those crimes and committed more crimes in order to cover them up by urging others to lie to investigators. So he just tried to change the subject which what he usually does."
The congressman said the impeachment resolutions being considered involve violations of the emoluments clause and Trump's"failure to defend the constitution against continuing Russian attacks." Nadler dismissed criticism that Democrats had made a"mistake" by having Mueller testify publicly. He accused Attorney General William Barr and Trump of deploying a widespread disinformation campaign to distract and"lie to the American people" about exoneration.
