Sen.-elect Adam Hamilton says he’d be disappointed if Democrats focus on investigating Trump
Hamilton said Democrats should focus on lowering costs and warned that two years of Trump investigations would divert attention from affordability goals.
- On Sunday, Democratic Senator-elect Adam Hamilton warned his party that the midterm "blue wave" could be "one and done" if Democrats fail to prioritize affordability for Americans struggling with cost-of-living challenges.
- Hamilton, a Methodist pastor who ousted Republican Senator Roger Marshall, flipped deep-red Kansas for Democrats after 94 years, describing the result as a "huge repudiation of what's happening in Washington D.C."
- "I'm not as interested in impeachment as setting up guardrails," Hamilton said, noting he would be "deeply disappointed" to spend his first two years in the Senate on investigations.
- While expressing "no disrespect for Chuck Schumer," Hamilton opposes the Senate Minority Leader's focus on investigations, contrasting with Schumer's vow Wednesday to "launch investigations" and "take him to court" against President Donald Trump.
- Senator Joe Manchin warned last month that an investigations-first approach could "tee up everything in 2028 for a Republican takeover," while Hamilton insists Democrats must deliver on promises within 100 days to maintain governing power.
