Customers at the Dobbs Ferry Diner attentively watched the first televised public impeachment hearing involving President Donald Trump’s dealings with Ukraine.

Democrats say the president should be impeached. They believe he allegedly demanded Ukraine’s president to investigate his rival, Joe Biden, in exchange for a large amount of funding in military aid.

President Trump denies the allegations, saying his July 25 phone call was "perfect," and calls the impeachment inquiry a partisan witch-hunt.

"If the president did feel that there was corruption, he should have gone to our own American investigative force. There is so much here, unless we're careful, we're on a path we shouldn't be on," says diner customer Lisa Eggert-Livin.

Another patron said that Trump should just be left alone.
