House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is using the impeachment inquiry to influence the 2020 presidential elections.<\/p>\n

By attempting to remove Republican President Donald Trump from office, Pelosi and her cohorts are trying to undo the results of the last presidential election while helping decide who will be the next commander-in-chief, Scalise told reporters on Oct. 31.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you look at where we are at right now, were at an important point in history. Clearly, there are people that we serve with that dont like the results of the 2016 election\u2014thats their prerogative\u2014but the country next year will be deciding who our president is going to be,\u201d Scalise said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt should not be Nancy Pelosi and a small group of people that she selects that get [to] determine whos going to be our president.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some Democrats have admitted that without the removal of Trump, the president will win re-election, including Rep. Al Green (D-Texas), Scalise noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey dont really want to get to the truth. They want to remove a sitting president. In fact, the author of the articles of impeachment [Green] said, if they dont impeach the president, he will get re-elected. Now thats not why we have impeachment. Alexander Hamilton made it very clear. His concern, when they were trying to promote the Constitution, was that he didnt want to see the impeachment used for political purposes, yet thats what happened today,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIts a tainted process.\u201d<\/p>\n

Republicans have criticized the impeachment resolution that passed earlier Thursday, noting it enables House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) to block some witnesses and questions from Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), the ranking member on the committee.<\/p>\n
