The current impeachment push against President Donald Trump contains little evidence and, if seen through, would set a low bar for future impeachments, George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said in an opening statement during an impeachment hearing in Washington on Dec. 4.

Turley said he didn’t vote for Trump in 2016 and voted for Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama in the past. He has also been “highly critical” of Trump and his policies and rhetoric.
