The impeachment noose is tightening around U.S President Donald Trump as his Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney admits that aid was withheld from Ukraine for political gain.

Senior Fellow United States Studies Centre senior fellow Bruce Wolpe told Sky News that the capitulation by Mr Mulvaney could spell trouble

for Donald Trump. “For the Democrats this means it's now locked up,” said Mr Wolpe. “The president is in a weaker position vis a vis impeachment.”

He got the trupes home. Say no more.

Yep. They’ve provided all the evidence of corruption. Morons.

See I knew sky news was being taken over by lefties!

Why is skynewsaust peddling this?

What about Biden and his crooked dealings? Oh wait, the Dems are running the Deep State

Calling all Dory fish....it's just another hoax story - remember the last 1000 'he's finished this time' ones? Keep watching as he repairs America, settles the world and drains that swamp!

The only way Trump will be impeached is if he declares the planet is close to extinction. If he declares he wants people to panic, tells children they will all be killed along with their parents all wildlife, species. He would be called a “dangerous madman” and be impeached.

Rubbish

BS

😂😂😂😂 Seriously? We’ll see in 2020!!

This is fake news 😡

FakeNews

It's the USA political field of games so much two faced hypocrites throughout the spectrum, And they believe that they are Great? This is what you get for a system based on money and greed. It's their citizens who are paying for this in the end.

cnn mouth piece , its pure rubbish sky news should be ashamed of the self full of socialist leftists

Aren’t you embarrassed putting out stories that have been proved false, people do read other outlets and get facts you know.

C'mon sky, didn't you learn from CNN

It’s amazing how 99% of commenters here know MORE about what’s REALLY going on in the USA that the dumb ass fools who post this FakeNews garbage for Sky. The corrupt Dems have wanted to impeach Donald Trump since the day he was inaugurated. It’s all BULLSH*T. IT WILL NOT HAPPEN!

Bullsh*t. I wish . would STOP parroting ExposeCNN and their Fake News BS. .realDonaldTrump IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE and the continual left wing coverage of Donald Trump is bordering on TDS. Knock it off Sky.

This was a story 2 days ago! Keep up Sky🤦‍♀️

White House Chief Of Staff Mick Mulvaney Claims Media Misconstrued His Comments On Ukraine via dailycaller

Political Hack Bull💩OR News Press🤔 White House acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney said his remarks about a review of military aid to Ukraine were twisted by the media-Mulvaney Revises His Statement, Says There Was 'Never' Any QuidProQuo For Ukraine Aid

is FakeNews

Your story is misleading!

Sky News is full of Fake News👎

I guess King Donald's daily litany of lies don't rate beside his flagrant abuse of power. Time to abdicate King Donald.

Love it. Mullaney said it twice on live TV. Hannity went berserk on Fox News Trump's lawyers said they had not briefed him and Sky News gets a load of Right Wing saying it didn't happen, Fake News or he retracted the statement. Yes he retracted after the crap hit the Oval Office.

😂Sky News takes word of Political Bias Anti-Trump 🐂💩artist?😂👇 Wolpe on Democrat Staff Congress-Obama's 1st term. SupporterClinton campaign. Chief of staff 2 Ex PM Gillard. VIEWS in his column 4 The Drum on 2016 election campaign r solely and exclusively HIS OWN🤣~ABC News~

an_untamed

Time to withdraw bwolpe's visa and return him to the USA. He is nothing more than a propaganda peddling puppet for the DNC. His lies and misinformation attempt to keep Australian's from understanding the truth. Shame on you . ScottMorrisonMP realDonaldTrump

Lol yeah right must be really struggling to print click bait fake stories just to get some clicks

This from the same USSC that, in ALL of their wisdom, had Hillary pegged for President in 2016 & Donald Trump absolutely no chance at all. Next Sky News will be seeking political commentary from CNN......oh wait 🙄

Don’t deal in FakeNews

Fake news

They didn't impeach George W. Bush for the Iraq War which killed 500,000 Iraqis. Didn't completely impeach Clinton who had an affair with an aide in the Oval Office & Didn't impeach Barack Obama for bombing Libya without congressional approval. So they won't Impeach Trump!

Click bait alert ^^^

as a yank in oz, sky either report the facts and leave opinion out of it or stop reporting bias stuff. do you really wnat the US to start false reporting of australia? so cover WHOLE thing or zero!!!

If I was Skynews I would be shitting myself too.

Stop talking shit aid was never held if u bothered to read the transcript the javelins were being purchased not given as aid I’m not even a journalist and I had time to read that

It’s just such an obscure issue to chose to prosecute. Like I’m not downplaying it’s importance but they’ve had a million sexier issues which were potentially just as grave. Why pick one about what Joe Biden’s son... joe citizen would barely understand let alone care

Corrupt Fake Sky News does it again. How are your ratings?

A Murdoch channel getting hammered by right wing trolls . This is the funniest thing I have seen in ages.

This is how to kill your company, . Do you want to go the way of CNN, or do you want to report on real news?

Yeah right. It won't happen and Trump will go on the be re-elected in 2020. Campaigning for that election is soon to ramp up and that will overwhelm the news cycle and the politicians.

Irresponsible FakeNews Fire your news editor for incompetence.

The walls are closing in ,its the beginning of the end ..............

PlanetAmerica PlanetAmericaIsTrending TFA

Now do Biden, here's a video for you...

Did you hear about that pedo ring bust across 38 countries including Australia? No?, scooped again.

I think you guys are living in a dreamworld. Mick Mulvaney didn’t say that at all. Read the transcript 👍

How can the USA Democrats impeach when they are following the same system as was done to Nixon and Clinton?

So the work experience kid is running the Sky News Twitter account over the weekend then? This fabricated 'story' was debunked three days ago. Stop listening to the fake news merchants at CNN,MSNBC, WaPo and NYT.

Lamb to the slaughter. They think if they admit to criminal behaviour it excuses them. 🤣😂🤣

That's not what he said at all

Goes to a vote, republicans have the final say, end of story

Fake News. Reported by notorious Trump hater Bruce Wolpe. He's still thinking Mueller is going to prove Trump is a Russian Asset. What a clown show the US Studies Centre has become. No credibility whatsoever. Sad.

Why is sky being so biased!!

That's bullshit Sky news! Stop making false 'bait' headlines!😡 There's no noose, so how is it tightening?🤔

Have you not read the transcript? It's all over the internet?

Yet another fake news story.

Fake stories

Bull shit, Mulvany himself says there was no strong arm threat to withhold funds (Biden style) he clarified this.

I call BS. The dems were talking impeachment since the night he won the election.

I must say I am disappointed in Sky . There has to be at least 1 use of IRONCLAD in every Trump article. Someone please talk to the clickbait editor, pronto . P.S you got me to click . Bravo Sky .

Rubbish

Fake News.

The noose is tightening as it's the tipping point of the walls closing in on the smoking gun, signalling the beginning of the end............or maybe it's all BS.

Hahahaha this will have the trumpanzees in a total tantrum 😂😂😂

Smoke screen coming. Why do you think he pulled out of Syria to start a war.

Ah no it's not. They don't have the votes, and Pelosi won't call for a vote. The Senate will knock it back. Stop reporting fake news.

You're hoping Sky News

fakenews. Sky even has an article yesterday with the clarification from the chief of staff. Why rewrite and repost this trash?

They don’t even have enough votes in the congress.

No, it is not.
