Adam Schiff, said that impeachment of President Trump would likely fail, due to a lack of support from Republicans in the House and Senate. Schiff made the comments in an interview with ABC News’ “This Week”.

“I think we’re going to do what is right for the country, and at this point, the speaker has not reached the conclusion, and I haven’t either that it’s the best for the country to put us through an impeachment proceeding that we know will, is, destined for failure in the Senate,” Schiff said.

“There may be little additional cost to going through that process, even if unsuccessful in the Senate,” Schiff said. “But we’re not there yet and I think if it is a close call, close calls go against putting the country through that.”
