President Donald Trump tweeted out several angry messages Tuesday just minutes after Congress announced a long-discussed formal impeachment inquiry into him
.
Such an important day at the United Nations, so much work and so much success, and the Democrats purposely had to ruin and demean it with more breaking news Witch Hunt garbage. So bad for our Country!— Donald J. Trump September 24, 2019 House Speaker Nancy Pelosi makes a highly-anticipated announcement on the impeachment of President Donald Trump. https://t.co/9jWpXahmaN“Can you believe this?” Trump said in one of his tweets, name dropping Pelosi, House Judiciary Chair Jerry Nadler , House Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff and House Financial Services Chair Maxine Waters .
According to the Washington Post, when asked about impeachment earlier Tuesday before Pelosi’s announcement, Trump said: “They say it’s a positive for me. How can you do this and you haven’t even seen the phone call?” He also said in his string of tweets that Congress “never even saw the transcript of the call.”
The reports about Trump’s request for foreign intervention in U.S. elections and potential bribery led a wave of more Democratic lawmakers to call for a full impeachment inquiry in Congress, making a total of at least 172 House members demanding the proceeding. Pelosi’s announcement was a change on her own stance, as she’s been a consistent opponent of impeachment and an advocate for long committee investigations.
