Comer Hopeful Impeachment Will End Soon

Congressman James Comer, a fervent opponent of the impeachment trial against President Trump, is hopeful that impeachment proceedings will soon be over.

In an interview with West Kentucky Star, Comer called the impeachment trial a "complete waste of time", saying Democrats may have had more credibilty if they hadn't spent the last two years investigating the President, especially on Russian collusion.

"It's just been a witch hunt from day one, and I think that in less than a week it will finally be over," said Comer. "Hopefully the Congress will let the President try to lead, and hopefully the leaders in Congress, especially on the House side where Democrats have the majority, will try to govern."

In a 51-49 decision, the Senate voted against calling witnesses on Friday afternoon, paving the way for an acquittal.
