President Donald Trump has called on Republican lawmakers to push for the expulsion of Democrats from Congress who are renewing impeachment attacks against him.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump blasted the “Radical Left Lunatics” who, once again, have targeted him for impeachment.
The president called on Republicans to respond by targeting Democrats for expulsion from Congress.
“The Democrats are really out of control,” Trump declared in the post.
“They have lost everything, especially their minds!
“These Radical Left Lunatics are into the ‘Impeachment thing’ again.
“They have already got two ‘No Name,’ little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the ‘Impeachment’ of DONALD J. TRUMP around, for about the 20th time, even though they have no idea for what I would be Impeached.”
Earlier this week, Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) announced articles of impeachment against Trump.
Rep. Al Green (D-TX) applauded the impeachment effort and declared during a speech, “Add my name to your articles of impeachment.”
Green also plans to introduce his own articles of impeachment targeting Trump.
However, Green was met with widespread mockery earlier this year when he called for Trump to be impeached for “dastardly deeds.”
“These Congressmen stated that, they didn’t know why they would Impeach me but, ‘We just want to do it,’” Trump asserted in his post.
“The Republicans should start to think about expelling them from Congress for all of the crimes that they have committed, especially around Election time(s)”
Thanedar’s resolution includes seven articles of impeachment:
- “OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE, VIOLATION OF DUE PROCESS, AND A BREACH OF THE DUTY TO FAITHFULLY EXECUTE LAWS”
- “USURPATION OF THE APPROPRIATIONS POWER”
- “ABUSE OF TRADE POWERS AND INTERNATIONAL AGGRESSION”
- “VIOLATION OF FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS”
- “CREATION OF UNLAWFUL OFFICE”
- “BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION”
- “TYRANNY.”
Unsurprisingly, Thanedar hasn’t presented any evidence to support these allegations against his president.
The House impeached Trump twice during his first term in office.
In each case, however, the Senate vote failed to reach the threshold necessary for conviction.
The second impeachment occurred at the tail end of Trump’s term in the wake of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol protests.
The Senate vote resulting in acquittal occurred after Trump had already departed from office.
In his late-night post on Thursday, Trump declared:
“These are very dishonest people that won’t let our Country heal!
“Why do we allow them to continuously use Impeachment as a weapon against the President of the United States who, by all accounts, is working hard to SAVE OUR COUNTRY.
“It’s the same playbook that they used in my First Term, and Republicans are not going to allow them to get away with it again.
“These are total LOWLIFES, who hate our Country, and everything it stands for.”
“Perhaps we should start playing this game on them, and expel Democrats for the many crimes that they have committed — And these are REAL crimes,” he warned.
“Remember, ‘Shifty’ Adam Schiff demanded a Pardon, and they had to use the power of the Auto Pen, and a Full Pardon, for him and the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, to save them from Expulsion, and probably worse!”
