The president unfurled an ardent attack on impeachment proceedings shortly after the House voted to make the inquiry official.
Trump has addressed reporters only twice since Monday, but once in the state where he defeated Hillary Clinton by nearly 18 percentage points in 2016, the president batted away accusations of wrongdoing in front of the home crowd.
The president dismissed the notion that lies at the heart of Democrats' impeachment push, joking sarcastically that the only way to defeat Biden was to enlist the help of Ukraine."Gee, I guess there's only one way. Let's call up Ukraine for help." He added he was even"impressed" with Biden's purported behavior, stating:"I didn't think he had the energy, the brain power," before mocking the former vice president again.Returning to his own allegations of withholding military aid to Ukraine in return for a politically motivated investigation, Trump said he would not do something like that.
