An advisor to President Donald Trumps 2020 campaign says that House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) isnt providing due process to Trump in the impeachment inquiry.

Jenna Ellis, the Trump campaigns senior legal adviser, said during an appearance on Fox Newss “America News HQ” over the weekend that Nadlers letter to Trump inviting the president or his counsel to appear at upcoming committee hearings contained “interesting phrasing.”

Ellis said that “in a regular judicial proceeding where there is due process, the prosecutor and the judge are not the same person.” She alleged that Nadler and House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) are being both prosecutors and judges in the inquiry. “If they really wanted to seek truth and fairness, they would allow an impartial arbRead More – Source
