Donald Trump Should Not Get Immunity in Return for Resignation, Congressman Says

Donald Trump‘s biggest foes on Capitol Hill want him out of office, but at least one is not willing to give him immunity from criminal prosecution as a quid pro quo.

Congressman Adriano Espaillat has already advocated for Articles of Impeachment against 45, but there’s a line in the sand he will not cross.
