Republicans can't stop talking about Obama during Trump's impeachment trialGreg Evans The impeachment trial of Donald Trump is well underway in the Senate, with the lawyers of the president giving their thoughts and testimonies on Monday. All in all, none of it was very exciting as it mostly consisted of Trump's people trying to explain why the president shouldn't be impeached despite evidence showing that he probably should be.
One of the weirdest things that occurred was the Trump's team and Republicans alike, constantly bringing up the name of Barack Obama, even though the former president has absolutely nothing to do with what is going on.
Throughout their time on the Senate floor on Monday, the names of Barack Obama and Joe Biden were constantly brought up.Things started with Pam Bondi and Eric Herschmann claiming that both Obama and Biden should be investigated for corruption, with Bondi adding that this was necessary as the charges against Trump, who had asked Ukraine to investigate Biden, were "baseless."
Herschmann then went on to read 'charges' against Obama and claimed that he had "undermined the integrity of the United States democratic process" and had engaged with a "quid pro quo" with the then president of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev in 2012.
