Adam Schiff accuses Trump counsel of using impeachment trial to ‘smear Biden’

House Intelligence Committee chair and impeachment manager Adam Schiff on Wednesday accused the U.S. President Donald Trump’s counsel of using the trial to “smear” former vice-president and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. Schiff said the Democrats are not interested in “trading witnesses” by allowing a witness that would “smear a presidential candidate” in return for a relevant witness.
