LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday an impeachment inquiry against him was a "hoax" being used by the Democrats for political gain ahead of next year's presidential election.

Democrats have been looking into Trump's efforts to pressure Ukraine to investigate political rival Joe Biden, the former U.S. vice president who is seeking the Democratic nomination to face Trump in the 2020 election, and his son Hunter Biden, who was a board member of a Ukrainian energy company.
