Pat Cipollone: Democrats want to remove Trump from 2020 ballot with impeachment

"It's buried in the small print of their ridiculous articles of impeachment. They want to remove President Trump from the ballot. They won't tell you that. They don't have the guts to say it directly, but that's exactly what they're here to do."
