Lead House impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) on Sunday chastised Republican senators who claimed to be bothered by President Donald Trump’s Ukrainian actions as they voted against impeachment witnesses, saying it doesn’t do justice to the president’s behavior to merely call it “inappropriate

Appearing on CBS News’ Face the Nation, the House Intelligence Committee chairman was asked what the impeachment trial had accomplished as the Senate is poised to acquit Trump after voting against hearing from witnesses about his actions.

“As you said, Senators Rubio, Alexander, Portman have all said in some way or another they found the actions of the president inappropriate, but not enough to oust him,” she added. “So the bottom line here seems to be that the president will get away with what they're calling inappropriate. What are Democrats going to do? What do you do next?”

“It will be up to the senators to make that final judgment and the senators will be held accountable for it,” he stated. On CNN’s State of the Union, meanwhile, Sen. Joni Ernst said that the president acted inappropriately but that she would inevitably vote to clear Trump of all charges.

Adam Schiff says the House proved its case over Trump's impeachment, says it's up to senators to make It a fair trial'[Senators] have control over the proceedings,' Schiff said. 'And they could have insisted on witnesses and documents and for whatever reason, chose not to.' 😂🤣😂 by “proved” what exactly does he mean? He really thinks the American People are that stupid. It’s incredible. Good luck with that... GOP senators will never do the right thing.... Funny they're called 'the right.' Then no need to call witnesses then, drama from the house.
