Amash: Some of Trump's actions 'were inherently corrupt'
Rep. Justin Amash (R-Mich.) doubled down his critiques of President Trump Thursday, saying in a lengthy Twitter thread that he took actions that were inherently corrupt.
Amash, who made headlines Saturday when he became the first Republican lawmaker to say Trump engaged in impeachable conduct, said special counsel Muellers report showed Trump sought to impede his investigation into Russian election interference.
Muellers report describes a consistent effort by the president to use his office to obstruct or otherwise corruptly impede the Russian election interference investigation because it put his interests at risk, Amash tweeted.

President Trump had an incentive to undermine the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, which included investigating contacts between Russia and the Trump campaign, Amash continued, noting that the investigation ultimately uncovered very unflattering information about Trump and revealed crimes committed by his associates.
