Donald Trump is clearly rattled by the impeachment hearings. Career employees have heroically come forward to testify. Yet, it is important to not assume the GOP has statesmen and women in office rather than political hacks with a deficit of character. This is what Trump had to say.
In his morning tweets, POTUS played to his base bragging about his crowd size:
‘The movement @realDonaldTrump has built is unlike anything we have ever seen. Tens of thousands came to Dallas to show their support, and they are ready to #KeepAmericaGreat in 2020!’
In spite of recent impeachment inquiry testimony, Trump went after former vice president Joe Biden’s son. Hunter has been investigated for his tenure on the board of a Ukrainiana energy company and cleared:
‘The only value Hunter Biden brought to the table was access to his father, then-VP Joe Biden. Democrats and the media don’t want to talk about that corruption. @realDonaldTrump is right to call it out!’
The president was still trying to overthrow the Democrats case against him:
Where’s the Whistleblower?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 23, 2019
‘Myth: Democrats aren’t impeaching @RealDonaldTrump because of politics. This is about Ukraine. Fact: Democrats introduced articles of impeachment in 2017.’
The commander-in-chief went after the investigation witnesses, another one of his tactics:
‘Neither he (Taylor) or any other witness has provided testimony that the Ukrainians were aware that military aid was being withheld. You can’t have a quid pro quo with no quo.” Congressman John Ratcliffe @foxandfriends Where is the Whistleblower? The Do Nothing Dems case is DEAD!’
Then, it was back to revving up his base against the “do nothing (sic) Democrats:”
‘Republicans are going to fight harder than ever to win back the House because of what the Do Nothing Democrats have done to our Country!’
Trump complained that the impeachment was “not constitutional,” a clear lie:
‘This #impeachment is not a constitutional process but an unprecedented #Democrat attack on a #Republican @POTUS Thank you @HARRISFAULKNER for having me on@OutnumberedOT today!’
Then, it was back to Hunter Biden:
‘I still have a lot more questions about #HunterBiden and his dealings in #Ukraine and #Russia. My video on @FoxBusiness yesterday.’
The president also has been trying to bring out “young campus conservatives:”
‘Young campus Conservatives are flocking to Turning Point USA & other Conservative speaker events all over the Country, AND IN RECORD NUMBERS. Thousands of students are turning out. “I just want to compliment the President of the United States for signing that historic Executive..’
He added he would go after the universities:
‘….Order a couple of months ago saying that any school that does not uphold the First Amendment Rights of its students will lose Federal Funding. We have seen a huge change in how the Universities interact with us as a national & local student organization. Our studends….’
POTUS knew that the only way to increase his base was through students:
‘….feel EMPOWERED. There’s a movement happening on these campuses like I’ve never seen before. When you have 3000 students wanting to get into an event that couldn’t get in, that’s pretty remarkable!” @charliekirk11 Turning Point USA KEEP AMERICA GREAT!’
The president claimed Democrats have been penalizing people:
‘Since day one, the left has been on a mission to dispute, deny, and re-litigate the results of the 2016 election. They aren’t just trying to penalize a political outsider for taking office. They’re trying to penalize the American people for choosing President @realDonaldTrump’
Trump pointed to his economic policies:
‘Remember when Democrats called the extra money in Americans’ wallets thanks to President @realDonaldTrump‘s economic policies “scraps” and “crumbs?” Update: “The median or average-income family has seen a gain of $5,003 since Trump came into office.”‘
The president hinted he wanted his Attorney General William Barr to go after the Democrats:
‘@realDonaldTrump “I would like the Attorney General to find out what’s going on. We’re investigating corruption. I have an obligation to do that…”’
For a rich kid since birth, Trump felt very much the victim:
‘It never ends. The Do Nothing Dems are terrible!’
