Symone Sanders: ‘Donald Trump Is Grasping for Straws’

‘Folks are not running to the hills, screaming impeachment’

EXCERPT:

SANDERS: "So to be clear, the economy is doing quite well in some respects. GDP is up, but wages are flat and stagnant in some places. But the current economy — I think economists would even argue, it does not rival the economy we saw in the early ‘90s. That being said, Donald Trump is grasping for straws here. Democrats in Congress know they were elected to put a check on this President and to get something done for the American people. Folks are not running to the hills, screaming impeachment. The Republicans are the ones doing that. And frankly, I said this before, Democrats always fall prey to having the conversation that the Republicans define as instead of defining the conversation for themselves. Will the people revolt? I don’t know, Jake. But where there is smoke, there is fire and the President has done wrong. If he was not President of the United States today, he would be hauled off to jail. And I think that’s something folks shouldn’t forget."
