Harris advises Democrats against attempting to impeach Trump

Former Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday urged Democrats against making a third attempt to impeach President Trump if they win back the House after next week’s midterm elections.

“I think that going in the direction of impeachment is not a good idea, just to be honest with you,” Harris told MeidasTouch’s Aaron Parnas in an interview. “Just because we have limited resources and I think the energy and the resources need to put into accountability, need to be put into investigations.”

“And that’s where the time should be spent,” she added. “Remember, I was in the Senate for the last go-around, and the votes aren’t there. “So, that’s how I feel. But also, I think after the election, we all have to just also agree that our attitude has to be to get stuff done.”

Harris said Democrats should be “uncompromising” and “not sit around, you know, being genteel about the relationships,” but maintain accountability when it comes to cuts to healthcare and oversight on the Iran war.
