Washington President Donald Trump's legal team on Monday filed a lengthy response to charges he abused his office and obstructed Congress, decrying the attempt to remove him as a"charade" and calling on senators to quickly reject it.
The 110-page filing reflects the most fulsome rebuttal of Democrats' accusations against Trump and amounts to a preview of the case Trump's lawyers will make on the Senate floor when the impeachment trial commences this week.They argue the impeachment was a partisan sham that failed to prove any violation of law. They warn against dangerous precedents should Democrats' efforts prove successful.
特朗普又乱喷了
He can't help himself.
Ha!
Good luck with that! You reap what you sew!
Well to be fair, there isn't anything substantial against Trump. While Clinton was facing down the barrel of the deep state trying to wash away his serial rape, pedophilia, and positional abuse of power to sexually assault in the Oval Office.
Ummm.why are you even comparing Trump to Clinton Clinton flat out lied about getting happy endings in the Oval Office from an intern !

So is 45...the worst American ever. Even worse than Manson and other murderers. He needs an orange jump suit.
Plus this is an election year...Nancy should know better, but she does not care! Everyone involved in this impeachment, against the president, JUST COMMITTED POLITICAL SUICIDE!
Well, it’s more than a charade, it’s an attempted coup, that will fail! Democrats are looking worse than ever
This president and his administration are a charade.

Trump’s presidency is a charade. Trump is a racist, corrupt, dishonest, unethical, immoral, incompetent and is unfit to be president
Just like Trumps Presidency. RemoveTrump TrumpsRemovalTrial ImpeachedForLife MoscowMitchMustRecuse
You can throw all the laws and legislation out the window If Tlump is not GUILTY Unimpeachable even found guilty? Hohoho What BANANA country are we living in Thinking of US interfering on other nations on how to run their own country
Have you reported this cnn Are you all gonna issue an apology to the President for blaming him yet again!!
American Nazi Party Leader Trump
Of course , like his presidency
Yawn
The radical left attempting to impeach a president on issues that are invalid and thus should be dismissed!!😁😁😁💪
CNN is Certified
Do you blame them? I’m surprised they respected it that much to call it a charade
Can’t help but feel SpeakerPelosi intentionally fucked over SenSanders, Pocahontas, and amyklobuchar by handing over the articles late. Only JoeBiden can campaign this week before the Iowa caucus.
Ugliest and dumbest president in history
It is very much a charade
cheat and win..
realDonaldTrump The only charade is Trump’s so called presidency. God and the American people willing, it will all be over next year when the NEW PRESIDENT is sworn in!
That’s what Hitler said .
Well, it is. And?
Really then stop blocking ppl from testifying.
Impeachment is worse than sitting in the dentist chair ..a travesty of justice to let this happen
You snow flakes are going to be sooo disappointed! POTUS will not be removed and will win in a landslide in 2020!!
It's also done💗Somewhere in that room when the vote was taken many many Republican senators smiled inside
CNN IS FAKE NEWS
Charade is that legalese?
Which it is..
Political vendetta from the git go, all votes in this sham process has been partisan. Just goes to show the political hatred for this president since day one. Remember, Pelosi said they had been working on this for 2 and a half years. That was before all the stuff with Ukraine.
You still haven’t said anything about the two lawsuits you had to settle out of court trying to sweep it under the rug nor any word about items riding in warehouses in PR which the president stated he had sent, many times. Time for you to mitt a mistake for one CNN
Not charade! Pictionary! You’re up! Any guesses? 🤣🤣🤣
The biggest charade is Trump's Presidency.
His taxpayer funded lawyers are required to work with the president on government legal matters, not personal.
For the fact dat trump hired so many legal heavy weights 👔👓💼 that's admission of guilt
Is he still crying about the process and not the actual charges laid out against him?
It is but you should know that you've been reporting on it for like 3 months nothing but lies from the CNN crowd
This clown 🤡 (don don) and his minions should be tired of playing fools!
The impeachment is the democrats response to President Trump exposing Biden and his son's money laundering from Ukrainian foreign aid. Usually we protect whistle-blowers. Is anyone going to report on or investigate Biden?
Well...EVERYTHING is a charade when you really get down to it.
Legal team’s response is pretty lame
Lock him up
Descriptors of how you feel are not much of a defense- In fact it is no defense. Impeach and remove the traitor now!
This is the Democrooks trying a last ditch effort to remove him from office, which will never happen.
It IS a charade. Soon our PresidentDonaldJTrumpJr will be acquitted of this politically motivated charge. SpeakerPelosi , there will forever be a stain on your time in Congress for doing such a despicable thing. He will have “acquitted” by his name, FOREVER. DonaldJTrumpJr
How about they argue the facts of the case. This is what people do when they have no defense just cry and say it is not fair.
their legal tactic not arguement is going to be whitewash everything I don't see nothing wrong with my dear leader behavior he is the chosen one.
Come on, CNN, how about “inaccurately calling a process sanctioned by the Constitution a ‘charade’” or or something like that? Facts matter. Call out lies. Adjust your journalism to our current situation.
Trump of progress
Trump and his so called defense team can call it a charade or any other name they so choose, at the of day and for an eternity(no end in sight), he will always be IMPEACHED!!! 110 pages still no substance?
He ought to know. He is a charade.
So, Constitutionally mandated checks and balances are unconstitutional? Hunh.
He’s right, you know.
realDonaldTrump legal team can call it what they want, their P.O.S. client will forever go down in history as Impeached
LockHimUp
Book, film, play or song?
Asco, asco, asco y ASCO.
Impeachment of a president is always just shameful for the whole nation.
I doubt Trump even knows what the word 'charade' means. He probably thinks it has something to do with parade.
Trump is a charade and a disgrace to the title
Wow what 'breaking news'.. the thing they've been saying for 6 months
I see Corruption Continues even in the Senate Trial. Sad days for America 🇺🇲 Moscow Mitch McConnell has to go!
I thought it was a hoax. Or was it a witch hunt?
No defense just deflection. Don’t look behind the curtain.
Trump's legal team is correct. Also in the news: CNN is social programming and perception management. And to all CNN fans who haven't figured this out, *You Deserve To Be Misled*
That's a good word for it.
Just when you thought they ran out of cliche synonyms...
Not likely.
Why is the White House counsel representing him. Do We The People not pay this guys salary 😡😡
The A hole team speaks
Set of corruption. A disgrace to the nation!!!!
Wake us up when it's all over and a real president is elected.
'charade' isn't that the thing on his head 🤣🤣
StopTheCoup Trump2020Landslide
Sounds like a Trump defense ..... CHANGE NOW !!!!!!!!
Calls it a charade, but doesn't present a defense.
Never anything substantive, just hurled insults and bellowing. I wonder how a real judge in a real trial would react to a defendant who dismissed the process as a 'charade' - throw out the charges and apologize for the inconvenience? lmao
Trump's administration is a charade. Reality TV to politics. What's the difference?
I think Dersh is a charade.
On the day we celebrate the movement of Dr. King, how sad that we have to deal with the vile filth of this president and his cronies
'Sigh'......
'detailed'? as in, fails to respond directly to or advance affirmative defenses against the allegations in the Articles?
Now I have to add 'charade' to my long list.
Because that’s what it is! Democrats are just helping Trump with his re-election. LANDSLIDE2020 TrumpNation
Nail that sack of crap
They can call it mince meat for all I care - we know Trump is a criminal and a fraud! RemoveTrumpNow
It’s time to remove this embarrassment of a president and get back the USA people can look up to again. Get it done.

VAGINA NECK😂🤷🏻♂️ You can’t unsee it....
Please stop taking pictures of him from that angle, I don't want my co-workers to think I am looking at turkey vaginas.
Thank god they didn't use the word Fake or Hoax. They've graduated to Charades!
That’s not a defense
Put aside the greedy, arrogant, corrupt nature of this man. Shouldn’t everyone want a president whom they would describe as merely bright?
Not much of a defense...just a bully attack and a childish one at that. Not a scholarly legal team, just actors.
Americans are smart. I don't think they will elect this fool in the upcoming elections!!
