Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) on Oct. 7 said he felt President Donald Trump should not have mentioned “the Biden issue” in a July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but that what Trump did is not an impeachable offense.
“The president should not have raised the Biden issue on that call, period. It’s not appropriate for a president to engage a foreign government in an investigation of a political opponent,” Portman told The Columbus Dispatch.
