A Republican called for President Donald Trump's impeachment. Now he faces a primary challenger.
Republican Representative Justin Amash became the first member of his party to call for President Donald Trump’s impeachment over the weekend. Now the Michigan lawmaker will face a primary challenger.
Lower predicted that his campaign would need to raise at least $1 million in order to beat an incumbent but believed he would “raise that amount and more.” He also said that while he had already planned to run against Amash, the congressman's call for impeachment lead him to announce his candidacy a few months sooner.
Despite being a member of the conservative House Freedom Caucus who won his seat on the coattails of the Tea Party movement, the Libertarian issued several other accusations that so far only Democrats have leveled. While House Democrats have grappled with whether or not to initiate impeachment proceedings in the wake of the Mueller report, and amid the current stonewalling of their congressional investigations by the White House, Democratic leadership has tamped down impeachment calls.
