Congressman Calls for Moment of Silence for 63 Million Trump Voters 'Disenfranchised' by Impeachment

During the impeachment debate on Wednesday, Rep. Bill Johnson (R-Ohio) asked for a moment of silence to commemorate the 63 million Americans who voted for Donald Trump in 2016, saying the Democrats intended to "disenfranchise" them via this "partisan impeachment sham."

"This partisan impeachment sham seeks to disenfranchise 63 million American voters," Johnson declared. "So I want to use my time to call on this chamber for members to rise and observe a moment of silent reflection, to give every member here the chance to pause for a moment and remember the voices of the 63 million American voters the Democrats today are wanting to silence."

As he spoke many Republican congressmen stood up behind him.
