Montana Gov. Steve Bullock on Thursday declined to join some of his fellow candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination in calling for President Donald Trump’s impeachment.
“I think we should have the full investigations…oversight that’s occurring right now,” Mr. Bullock told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Thursday. “I would much rather that be the focus…we have to see where these investigations [and] the oversight goes.”
Multiple candidates for the Democratic nomination, including Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Kamala Harris, D-Calif., Cory Booker, D-N.J., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., have called for Trump’s impeachment following the conclusion of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report.
Bullock added that Trump and White House staff have been “stonewalling” investigators, and that he wants to avoid normalizing “false statements.” However, the governor said he would prefer to spend the campaign season talking about taxes and health care, which are the issues voters have spoken to him about.
“I’m hearing about farm prices. I’m hearing about concern of losing rural hospitals. I’m hearing about, ‘can I stay in my community?’ because while the economy is booming for some people, a lot of folks don’t feel that,” he said. “So I’m hearing about those base issues of health care, jobs, education, and I think that’s what we got to be focused on for the next year-and-a-half.”
