Faced with impeachment, previous presidents have sought to lower tensions. Finding himself in the same situation the past few weeks, Donald Trump has instead opted for confrontation and defiance.

Tomorrow, Trump will be impeached by the House for abusing his power in the pursuit of information in Ukraine damaging to a political rival, in a scheme executed largely by his personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani. But Trump has not only not apologized or backed down from the behavior that inspired the impeachment; he has instead emphasized it     

Earlier this month, Giuliani once more traveled to Ukraine. And while House Republicans for a time tried to pretend that Giuliani might have been freelancing, without the president’s awareness or involvement, Trump has been open about his close coordination with Giuliani.

Giuliani told The Wall Street Journal that Trump called him as his plane was still on the tarmac, taxiing to the gate, and asked, “What did you get?” Giuliani replied, “More than you can imagine.” The president confirmed this. “He says he has a lot of good information,” Trump said Saturday. “I hear he has found plenty.” On Friday, Giuliani visited the White House and though Trump later told reporters that Giuliani had told him “not too much” about the trip, the president also directed his attorney to deliver a report to Congress and the Justice Department on his findings.

Is Trump willing to sacrifice his presidency for his own witch hunt on Biden?
