President Donald Trump railed against Democrats in a tweetstorm blasting House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff and other lawmakers after Democrats hit Trump with two articles of impeachment, obstruction of Congress and abuse of power.
“Nadler just said that I “pressured Ukraine to interfere in our 2020 Election.” Ridiculous, and he knows that is not true,” Trump tweeted. “Both the President & Foreign Minister of Ukraine said, many times, that there “WAS NO PRESSURE.” Nadler and the Dems know this, but refuse to acknowledge!” he added.
He then urged his followers to “Read the Transcripts!”, claiming that “us” is a reference to USA, “not me!”
Not satisfied, he went after Adam Schiff, calling him “a totally corrupt politician,” who will “eventually have to answer for this!”

WITCH HUNT!

Shifty Schiff, a totally corrupt politician, made up a horrible and fraudulent statement, read it to Congress, and said those words came from me. He got caught, was very embarrassed, yet nothing happened to him for committing this fraud. He’ll eventually have to answer for this!

As expected, Trump’s tweets were met with a brutal response:
Dirty Donny, a totally corrupt politician, did horrible, criminal things including abuse of power, bribery, obstruction. He got caught, was very embarrassed, yet pretended everything was “perfect”. He’ll eventually have to answer for this!

Trump still thinks this is all about his phone conversations.
What about holding back the money that was approved.
What about the demands for the announcement about the Biden's being investigated.
What about blocking witnesses from testifying.The House was right to impeach..

Sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of celebratory music playing and champagne bottles popping at my impeachment party. Can you call back later?
