Donald Trump on Monday responded to Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s refusal to rule out a second impeachment to trigger a Senate trial that would delay its confirmation process of his coming Supreme Court pick to replace the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg by essentially daring her to do so.
“So they’re impeaching me because I’m doing constitutionally what I’m supposed to do,” the president told Fox News in a morning telephone interview. “If they do, I think my numbers will go up.”
The GOP president predicted, should House Democrats gain impeach him as a stalling tactic, “we’ll win the entire election.”
The president repeated his dare in a tweet less than an hour after he appeared on the Fox News Channel’s morning show: “Crazy Nancy Pelosi wants to Impeach me if I fulfill my Constitutional Obligation to put forth a Nominee for the vacated seat on the United States Supreme Court. This would be a FIRST, even crazier than being Impeached for making a PERFECT phone call to Ukrainian Pres.” He tagged the Senate Republicans’ official Twitter account to drive home his call for a speedy process.
In a bold claim that defies most political analysts’ assessment of the 2020 House map, he said “I think we’ll win back the House” and keep the Senate.
