Donald Trump has been accused of “incitement to violence” and threatened with obstruction charges as the impeachment investigation heats up.
The U.S president has been enraged by the whole impeachment process, but those pursuing one are not relaxing at all. Adam Schiff, chairman of the powerful House intelligence committee was on Wednesday piling up the pressure and intensifying his demands for full co-operation for the things requested. Trump went as far as saying that Schiff should be investigated for treason.

This is the second time the president has faced serious call for impeachment, The first was over the Mueller investigation in relation to possible collusion with Russian forces in illegally interfering with the 2016 U.S elections. The pace of that investigation looked dangerous for mr.Trump, but Mueller appeared to fold up in the end leaving the U.S president feeling triumphant,
The level of opposition against the president is strong here in the face of some of the undeniable claims against him. He may have more support than opposition to battle it all off.
