WASHINGTON (AP) – House Democrats are saying that “no president” has ever abused power the way President Donald Trump did toward Ukraine. They’re making their case as they press into the second day of arguments in Trump’s historic impeachment trial in the U.S. Senate. They are facing a big challenge trying to win over not just fidgety senators but an American public deeply divided by the Republican president’s actions. Republicans are blocking new witnesses. The long hours in back-to-back days of proceedings have left some senators yawning, stretching and pacing. Each side has 24 hours over three days to make its case.
