Donald Trump has lashed out at lead impeachment manager Adam Schiff, again calling him “mentally deranged”, as Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell claims to have seen off the threatened Republican rebellion on subpoenaing new witnesses and hopes to press ahead with the president’s acquittal on Friday after a final question-and-answer session in the upper chamber today.Mr Schiff ripped into the president’s defence team after the president’s lawyer Alan Dershowitz argued that his client couldn’t be impeached for an action he thought might get him re-elected.
