Democrat Rep. Hakeem Jeffries had no answer when ‘Fox News Sunday’ host Chris Wallace pressed him on members of his party yucking it up after Speaker Nancy Pelosi said there was “no joy” in impeaching President Trump.

But remember, they aren’t doing this because they dislike Trump or anything.
Jeffries just said "we don't dislike this president." Yet, he supported Green's flawed 2018 impeachment effort before the Ukraine call and once denounced Trump as the "Grand Wizard of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue." https://t.co/cL46ttkgH7
