Rep. Adam Schiff on Thursday continued arguing that President Trump should be removed from office — with House impeachment managers launching a detailed condemnation of Trump’s dealings with Ukraine.

“A president’s first and only objective is to get foreign leaders to do what is in the best interests of the United States. That’s not what happened on July 25th,” said Rep. Adam Schiff, the lead House manager.

That was the date that Trump, on a call with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, asked for investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter as well as Ukraine’s purported role in the 2016 US election.

“On that date, President Trump used the head of state call with a leader of Ukraine to help himself, to press a foreign leader to investigate the president’s political opponent in order to help his re-election campaign,” he continued.

“President Trump abused his authority as commander-in-chief and chief diplomat to benefit himself, and he betrayed the interest of the American people when he did so.”

The impeachment case focuses on Trump’s request that Ukraine investigate Biden and Biden’s son on unsubstantiated corruption allegations.

At the time, Trump temporarily withheld $391 million in US military aid to Ukraine, which Democrats allege was leverage for his demands.

Trump — who denies wrongdoing and calls the proceedings a “hoax” and “witch hunt” — is almost certain to be acquitted by the Senate, where a two-thirds majority is needed to remove him from office.

But New York Rep. Jerrold Nadler, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, also took the podium and unloaded on the commander-in-chief.

“No president has ever used his office to compel a foreign nation to help him cheat in our elections. Prior presidents would be shocked to the core by such conduct, and rightly so,” Nadler said.

“Now, because President Trump has largely failed to convince the country that his conduct was remotely acceptable, he has adopted a fallback position,” Nadler asserted.

“He argues that even if we disapprove of his misconduct, we cannot remove him for it. Frankly, that argument is itself terrifying. It confirms the president sees no limits of his power or his inability to use public office for private gain,” he added.

“His conduct is not America first. It is Donald Trump first,” Nadler charged.

Schiff returned to the podium in the afternoon to double down on Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani’s insistence that Ukraine was behind the meddling.

“Donald Trump wanted investigated or announced, this completely bogus, Kremlin-pushed conspiracy theory,” Schiff charged.

“I was also struck by that video you saw of Tom Bossert, the former homeland security adviser for the president, in which he talked about how completely debunked and crazy this conspiracy theory is.”

Russian strongman Vladimir Putin, he speculated, must have been thrilled.

“You can imagine Putin in the Kremlin with his aides when one of his aides comes into the office and says, ‘Vladimir, you’re never going to believe this. The president of the United States is pushing our [Ukraine] theory,’” Schiff continued.

“I mean, you can all just imagine the incredulity of Vladimir Putin. ‘You’re kidding, right? You mean he really believes this? His own people don’t believe this. Nobody believes this,’” he said.

“On the basis of this Russian propaganda, he withheld 400 million [dollars] in military aid to a nation Russia was fighting, our ally.”

Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-Texas) also ripped the president for asking Zelensky to investigate the Bidens.

“It’s clear that the president wanted — what he wanted from Ukraine, an investigation to smear his political rival. Ukraine’s former prosecutor general admitted that the allegation against Vice President Biden’s son was plainly false,” she said.

“The long and short of it is that there was no basis for the investigation that the president was pursuing and pushing, none. He was doing it only for his own political benefit,” Garcia said.

She also said there was no evidence to support a theory advanced by Trump that it was Ukraine and not Russia that meddled in the 2016 election, a theory at odds with the conclusion of the US intelligence community and State Department.

Most, if not all, Republicans were not convinced by the Democrats’ overall case.

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) said he had already made up his mind to vote for acquittal.

Referring to the Democrats’ presentation, Tillis told reporters, “It reminds of the shopping channel, the hits of the ‘80s, you hear it again and again and again and again. I can almost recite the testimony.”

Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) added, “It’s a more organized presentation of the same facts.”

The Democrats also argued against the Trump defense team’s argument that an actual crime had to be committed in order to impeach a president, a sentiment that has been echoed by many Republican members of Congress.

Nadler presented video clips of constitutional law experts and others arguing that no actual crime needs to have been committed in order to impeach a president.

Among those he showed speaking was then-Rep. Lindsey Graham, speaking at the time of President Bill Clinton’s impeachment.

“What’s a high crime? How about if an important person hurts somebody of low means? It’s not very scholarly, but I think it’s the truth. I think that’s what they meant by high crimes. Doesn’t even have to be a crime. It’s just when you start using your office and you’re acting in a way that hurts people, you’ve committed a high crime,” Graham, who has since changed his tune, said then.

Earlier Thursday, Graham called for a probe of the Bidens, asserting that the former veep needed to explain himself.

Nadler also played a 1998 video clip of Alan Dershowitz, a member of Trump’s legal team, recognizing abuse of power as impeachable, and cited a memo written by Attorney General William Barr, a Trump appointee, that showed the same past-present counterpoint.
