US President Donald Trump has stated that it is unfair that he was being impeached as he had done no wrong and the US, under his leadership, was doing quite good.
“It’s not fair that I’m being Impeached while I have done absolutely nothing wrong.” President Trump tweeted.
The impeachment against Donald Trump now moves to the House of Representatives, where the opposition Democratic Party enjoys a majority. Once passed by the House, the trial for impeachment would be carried out in the 100-member US Senate, where President Trump’s Republican party has a majority.
“The Radical Left, Do Nothing Democrats have become the Party of Hate. They are so bad for our Country!,” Donald Trump said in his tweet.
Earlier in the day, he described the impeachment as a hoax and politically motivated.
“The impeachment is a hoax. It is a sham. It started a long time ago, probably before I came down the escalator with the future First Lady. It started a long time ago,” Donald Trump told reporters earlier in the day at the White House.
“It is a witch hunt. It is a sham. It is a hoax. Nothing was done wrong. Zero was done wrong. I think it is a horrible thing to be using the tool of impeachment, which is supposed to be used in an emergency. And it would seem many, many, many years apart,” he asserted.
“To be using this for a perfect phone call, where the president of that country said there was no pressure whatsoever — did not even know what we were talking about. It was perfect; the relationship is perfect. I have done much more for them than Obama did for them. It is a scam. It is something that should not be allowed. And it is a very bad thing for our country,” President Trump said.
