Vulnerable House Democrats are announcing they'll vote for President Trump's impeachment even if it means losing their seats in Congress.
Utah Democrat Ben McAdams stepped into a small-town council chamber just outside Salt Lake City and took a deep breath.With a tight smile, the congressman made clear, in the heart of ruby-red Utah, that he will vote to impeach President Trump.
The House vote means Trump is on the brink of becoming only the third impeached president in American history. The scene was different in battleground Michigan, where Rep. Elissa Slotkin was both heckled and applauded as she declared that she’ll vote for both articles. Her experience as a former intelligence officer, she said, won out over questions about her political future.
