Trump says GOP 'absolutely killing it' in impeachment inquiry



Trump says GOP 'absolutely killing it' in impeachment inquiry

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he was pleased with how Republicans were handling the impeachment inquiry and accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., of being “grossly incompetent” and ignoring legislative obligations to focus on impeachment.

“I just got to watch,” Trump said during a Cabinet meeting at the White House, speaking of the Tuesday morning testimony from National Security Council staffer Lt. Col. Alex Vindman and Jennifer Williams, an aide to Vice President Mike Pence. “And the Republicans are absolutely killing it. They are doing so well.”


Trump lamented that Congress still had not approved USMCA, a revamped version of the nearly 25-year-old North America Free Trade Agreement with Canada and Mexico, saying Pelosi was playing politics with the pact.

“Pelosi can't get it off her desk, just can't do it,” Trump said of USMCA. “I think the woman is grossly incompetent. All she wants to do is focus on impeachment, which is just a little pipe dream she’s got. And she can keep playing that game.”


Trump said that he had “been told” that Pelosi “is using USMCA because she doesn't have the impeachment votes, so she is using USMCA to get the impeachment vote. ... The woman is highly overrated, highly incompetent.”

When asked if he found Vindman — whose testimony was still ongoing as the president met with his Cabinet — to be a credible witness, Trump said that he had watched the hearing for just a “little while” prior to the meeting, but “had never heard of him.”
