NBC quoted a Republican senator, Pat Toomey, “I think the best way for our country…. is for the president to resign and go away as soon as possible”, adding, “I acknowledge that may not be likely, but I think that would be best”.
According to the Whitehouse, the impeachment is a “politically motivated” move that would “only serve to further divide our great country”, BBC indicated.
