Joe Biden made his first comments on his impeachment, telling a group of Democratic donors that Republicans 'want to impeach me because they want to shut down the government.'
Biden, speaking at a fundraising reception in McLean,
Virginia, specifically mentioned conservative Rep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene of
Georgia and her interest in impeaching him since the day Republicans took control of the House of Representatives.
'Well, I tell you what, I don’t know quite why, but they just knew they wanted to impeach me. And now, the best I can tell, they want to impeach me because they want to shut down the government,' he said.
The
White House has
doubled down on its defense of the president, blasting the impeachment inquiry as 'baseless,'
setting up a war room to combat the investigation, and
sending a memo to news organizations to encourage greater scrutiny of
Republican motives.

I don't think that the GOP wants to shut down the government.
I do think that the Democrat Party wants to shut down the government and then blame it on the GOP.
