Republicans and Democrats are at an “impasse” over the next steps in the impeachment of President Donald Trump, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said at a Senate session on Thursday afternoon.

McConnell said that he and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) “had a cordial conversation” earlier in the day, discussing potential paths forward after House Democrats’ “precedent-breaking impeachment of President Trump.”
