Democrats Warn That American People May Tamper With Next Election

WASHINGTON, D.C.—In his opening statement at Trump's impeachment trial, Rep. Adam Schiff reminded the Senate of their solemn duty and the gravity of just what it is they will be discussing at the trial.

Schiff warned that if Trump is not impeached, the American people may have a chance to tamper with the next election.

"If President Trump is not impeached, the American people might get a say in who is president," Schiff said gravely. "We simply can't allow that to happen. We must diligently defend our electoral process against electoral outcomes we do not like. If that means seizing power through a sham impeachment trial, so be it."

"When the Founders wrote that founding document thing, they never imagined there would be electoral outcomes that Democrats did not agree with."

Democrats also said they even have hard evidence that the 2016 election was compromised by Republicans voting for Trump.

Report: Obama Thinks Sanders is Unfit to Take on Trump in 2020

President Obama doesn’t think Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has what it takes to go head-to-head with President Trump in the 2020 race, and he may soon voice his concerns publicly.

They also point out that Obama’s opinion of Warren has softened since November, and he is said to be growing comfortable with endorsing her fully if she should win the nomination.

But, these people add, he has recently grown even more wary of Sanders as the Vermont senator appears to be gaining momentum in polls and the Democratic primaries begin to heat up with the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary both in February.

According to the report, President Obama has said privately that Sanders is politically and temperamentally unfit to defeat Trump due to his confrontational nature, lack of willingness to compromise and far-left policies including free college tuition and student loan forgiveness.

Fox Business notes it is unclear if Obama will call out Sanders specifically, or discuss his opposition to the candidate in a more general approach. It is also possible that he will not need to speak out if Warren or former Vice President Joe Biden come out ahead in early primaries.

Earlier this week, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton voiced her opposition to Sanders, telling The Hollywood Reporter that...
