“When you think back to Watergate, they didn’t close their eyes when a paranoid president, who was up for election and looking for dirt on a political opponent, got involved with having people break into an office and steal information on their opponents from a filing cabinet,” Klobuchar told Stephanopoulos.

“Well, this is the global version of Watergate where a president is trying to get dirt on a political opponent from a world leader,” she added.

Klobuchar’s interview came after a second week of public impeachment testimony, during which several former and current Trump officials testified in front of House investigators.

The House launched the impeachment inquiry into the president after a whistleblower reported Trump asked the Ukrainian president to look into Biden, days after withholding military aid to the country.
