Luis Gutierrez demands Trump resign 'immediately'

A progressive House Democrat is asking President Trump to resign immediately and allow Vice President Mike Pence, whose views are more conservative than Trump’s, to take over.

“I am convinced that you have committed acts that under our Constitution are grounds for impeachment, but I also hope the nation can avoid the cynicism and division that impeachment would inflict on this country,” said retiring Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., in a letter to Trump. “I think you know what evidence and actions will be uncovered by thorough investigations, and it is indefensible.”
