Thousands of Americans have taken to the streets of Washington, DC –and dozens of locations around the country — to demand the removal of President Donald Trump who is on trial at the senate.
The protesters demanded an end to what they described as Mitch McConnell’s cover-up of the evidence.
They said witnesses and documents should be allowed at the trial, according to several reports.
President Trump is being tried at the senate after he was impeached by the House of Representatives.
The House slammed two articles of impeachment against Trump late last year and asked the senate to remove him from office.
