If Donald Trump is good at anything, it’s twisting even the shittiest of things to look like they’re in his favor. That, and Twitter tantrums. He is REALLY good at Twitter tantrums.
But after the most powerful Democrat in Congress weighed in on impeachment, he took the Trump version of the high road. In response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comment on impeachment, he fired off a series of tweets that just got more ridiculous as they went on. Now, in case you didn’t know, Pelosi did state that she wouldn’t be gunning for the impeachment of 45. But she certainly didn’t say so in the context that Trump is painting it in.
I greatly appreciate Nancy Pelosi’s statement against impeachment, but everyone must remember the minor fact that I never did anything wrong, the Economy and Unemployment are the best ever, Military and Vets are great – and many other successes! How do you impeach….

….a man who is considered by many to be the President with the most successful first two years in history, especially when he has done nothing wrong and impeachment is for “high crimes and misdemeanors”?

In an interview with the Washington Post, Pelosi stated that she’s not for impeachment.
“Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country.” She wrapped up her interview by stating, “And he’s just not worth it.”
Folks, that was not a compliment. I don’t even see how it could be construed as such. But nevertheless, where there’s a will there’s a way, and Trump found a way. In the wee hours of this morning, Donnie took to Twitter to give thanks for Pelosi’s statement. Saying, “I greatly appreciate Nancy Pelosi’s statement against impeachment…”
But he didn’t stop there. Because of course he didn’t. Instead, Donald Trump proceeded to do what Donald Trump does best — give himself a big ole pat on the back. Claiming that while he was supposedly appreciative for the conceived support, everyone needed to remember the “minor detail” that he’s never done a damn thing wrong.
That’s right folks, according to Trump, Trump is perfect. The economy, unemployment, military, and vets are all better than they’ve ever been! Not to mention all of the “many other successes.” Evidently, he just doesn’t understand how people could even entertain impeachment for a president that’s just so darn perfect.
Nevermind the fact that Pelosi pretty much said that he’s just not worth her time. We can add accepting criticism to the list of shit that Trump needs to work on.
