Impeachment leader Representative Adam Schiff is now encouraging “good conscience” Republicans within the Trump administration to resign.
According to Fox News:
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow that “good conscience” Republicans should step down after President Trump told reporters he would have to “see what happens” with election results before committing to a peaceful transfer of power.
“We’re going to have to see what happens,” Trump said during the White House news conference when asked if he would commit to a peaceful transfer of power after the election. “You know that I’ve been complaining very strongly about the ballots, and the ballots are a disaster.”
Schiff, D-Calif., joined “The Rachel Maddow Show” later in the evening to sound the alarm.
“There is no question he means exactly what he said. And people fail to take it seriously at our national peril. This is a moment that I would say to any Republican of good conscience working in the administration — it is time for you to resign,” Schiff said. “It is time for you to resign.”
