Nadler: Trump Is A ‘Threat’ To National Security

House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said Sunday that President Donald Trump is a “threat” to national security. 

Nadler spoke with ABC’s George Stephanopolous on “This Week” Sunday about the lack of support from Republicans for impeachment. “Haven’t you failed your own test,” Stephanopolous asked Nadler.

The Democratic New York representative told Stephanopolous, “I don’t think so,” adding that Trump actively seeks foreign interference in United States elections and that Trump’s alleged interference is ” a continuing threat to the integrity of our elections now.”

“This is not a one-off — impeachment is not a punishment for past behavior,” he told Stephanopolous.

“This president conspired, sought foreign interference in the 2016 election,” Nadler said. “He is openly seeking interference in the 2020 election and he poses a continuing threat to our national security and to the integrity of our elections to our democratic system itself.”

“We cannot permit that to continue,” Nadler added.
