The prospect of Donald Trump's impeachment is looking unlikely with Democrats divided over the issue, but the president may end up nudging them closer with the words "I don't do coverups." Trump uttered his defiant one-liner during a surprise Rose Garden speech lashing out at House Democrats trying to investigate him for obstruction of justice. He refused to resume talks with Democrats on a $2-trillion infrastructure bill that he himself wanted to craft. "I walked into the room and I told Leader Schumer and Speaker Pelosi I want to do infrastructure," Trump told reporters in the Rose Garden. But the more that Trump stonewalls the Democrats, the more inclined members of Congress might be to press for his impeachment.
