“Listen, I want to see what the process produces,” Rep. Mark Amodei (R-NV) said on a conference call with members of the media
Following reports that Amodei supported impeachment, he: “If it was my statement and I had the ability to do it over, I would probably phrase it differently,” he said. “I don’t know that it’s a smoking gun.”
“I think that’s why we have the committee process,” he added. “I won’t attribute what was in the president’s mind. That wasn’t a great way to express concern about it. Part of what the committees will do is try to find some context for that and then based on what a fair reading of the context is, they’ll go forward from there.”
Amodei was also cautious not to go too far with his statement, lest he be portrayed as supporting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. “Please, nobody hang up the phone and say, ‘Amodei is Pelosi’s defender,’” he said.
