Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday that he remains “hopeful” that enough Republicans senators will join Democratic calls for witnesses and documents in the forthcoming Senate impeachment trial.
“I hope, pray and believe there’s a decent chance that four Republicans will join us — if they do we will have a fair trial,” Schumer said in an interview on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos,” noting the minimum number of Republicans Democrats will need to follow through on their request. “I am hopeful that our Republican colleagues will come forward.”
