Former Vice-President Joe Biden said he and Democratic competitor Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., agree on President Donald Trump: He's the "most corrupt (president) in modern history and all of our history."
"This president of the United States has gone so far as to say, since this later event, that in fact he will not cooperate in any way at all, will not provide information, will not do anything to cooperate with the impeachment," Biden said. "They have no choice but to move."
Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., agreed Trump has "committed crimes in plain sight."
"It's shocking, but he told us who he was," Harris said. "Maya Angelou told us, listen to somebody when they tell you who they are. During that election, Donald Trump told us he could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and get away with it. Since he won, he's been selling out the American people . . . on this issue with Ukraine, he has been selling out our democracy."
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., meanwhile, called for fair proceedings, while he understands he "outrage that we all feel."
"We have to conduct this process in a way that is honorable, that brings our country together, doesn't rip us apart," he said."Anybody who has a criticism about a process that is making all the facts bare before the American public, that works to build consensus. That's what this nation needs."
