Democratic presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg supported the impeachment of US President Donald Trump.

During an interview with CBS, Bloomberg, 77, said of impeaching Trump, "I think it's a very serious thing but it — and I was before opposed to it but after looking at all of the evidence, I think yes. Sad, but yes.”

Bloomberg officially announced the decision to participate in the nomination of a US presidential candidate from the Democrats on November 24.

Yesterday, Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi instructed the Legal Committee of the House of Representatives to prepare draft articles on Trump’s impeachment.
