I have been concerned since the beginning that this impeachment process has been driven by a predetermined verdict of guilty. It's unfair. Now, any future president, Democrat or Republican, will have to worry that impeachment will be used as a blunt force political instrument, Fortenberry said. The House has had its cathartic moment. Maybe tomorrow, we can get back to work and pass a good, fair trade agreement with Canada and Mexico, Fortenberry added.
