President Donald Trump and congressional allies are discussing a push to formally expunge his two impeachments from the House record, a move supporters say would help correct what they see as partisan attacks against the president.
Supporters argue the documents undermine the credibility of key witnesses and bolster claims that the proceedings were politically motivated.
“It should be done because I did nothing wrong,” Trump told The Wall Street Journal in a phone interview. “It was a rigged deal — it was a whole rigged situation.”
Trump has shared reports about the expungement effort on Truth Social but has downplayed his own role in promoting it.
“If they want to do it, I’m honored by it,” Trump told the Journal.
