• Todo el país necesita llegar al fondo de lo que realmente ocurrió con las acusaciones de colusión rusa. Pero mientras tanto, tenemos a un presidente Donald Trump que él mismo dice confía en mí. No acepta los límites de la ley. Básicamente dice que si alguien se acerca demasiado para su comodidad, voy a deshacerme de él. Y mientras eso esté vigente, no podemos permitirnos como país poner nuestro destino en manos de alguien tan caprichoso y tan impredecible.

That's not the American way. It's not the constitutional way.
