In December 2019, the U.S. House of Representatives approved both articles of indictment about abuse of power and obstruction of the work of Congress as part of the impeachment process of the president of the country.

Trump called the democrats' impeachment efforts "the continuation of the largest witch hunt in US history."

He also demanded the immediate start of the impeachment process in the Senate.
