During Yovanovitch's testimony today Trump tweeted out what was negative statements about her. When confronted with the fact that this could be seen as witness intimidation, Trump stated he had the right to do so as he had freedom of speech like any other American. Now I do not know much about the law, but lawyer's on both Fox News and MSNBC seemed to think that it was witness intimidation. One lawyer on Fox News said it could be considered either witness tampering or intimidation, but did not think it rose to the level of impeachment. Others on Fox News did not say anything about whether it was impeachable, but that it was not a smart thing to do. The lawyers on MSNBC seemed to think it was terrible and thought that it might be part of the impeachment process. All seemed to think it was some form of witness intimidation, but questioned how serious it was. So, what do you think. Can a President under the guise of freedom of speech say anything he wants and this should be covered under freedom of speech or is there a limit and this was witness intimidation?.
