The content below is from an email sent to Grassfire staff by the office of House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Thursday, December 19 at 4:22 a.m. ET:Minutes before the vote, I said something my Democrats hate to hear: Donald J. Trump is President.

He is President today. He will be President tomorrow. And he will be President when this impeachment is over.

Then we voted. And you know what happened next? They cheered. They clapped. They celebrated.

Didn't they claim this was supposed to be a sad and somber moment? How disgusting.

Democrats just signed their own pink slips by voting to undo the results of the 2016 election and impeach the duly-elected President of the United States. Let's not let them forget what they have done.

P.S. Republicans were 100% united in our opposition, and we will continue fighting to represent the silent majority in America.
