Donald Trump and his defenders in Congress are running out of impeachment talking points, and a new tweet from the president is living proof of their sad reality.
In a Twitter post, Trump essentially claimed that a president of the United States cannot be impeached and removed from office – no matter what they do – if the stock market is climbing.
“Dow hits 28,000 – FIRST TIME EVER, HIGHEST EVER!” Trump tweeted before attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam “Schitt” for launching an impeachment inquiry.
Dow hits 28,000 – FIRST TIME EVER, HIGHEST EVER! Gee, Pelosi & Schitt have a good idea, “lets Impeach the President.” If something like that ever happened, it would lead to the biggest FALL in Market History. It’s called a Depression, not a Recession! So much for 401-K’s & Jobs!

Despite what the voices in his unstable mind tell him, the growing Obama-Biden economy that he inherited in 2017 has nothing to do with impeachment.
The Constitution gives Congress the power – regardless of the country’s economic state – to impeach a president for committing “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
In his criminal dealings with Ukraine, Trump appears to have pulled off a trifecta, and the Democrats had no choice but to move forward on impeachment.
Trump is an embarrassment to the presidency
Trump’s tweet doesn’t just demonstrate his constitutional ignorance, but it also shows just what a small and juvenile man he is.
Consider for a moment that the commander-in-chief – the man in control of America’s nuclear codes – is sitting in the White House residence crafting tweets in which he refers to the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee (Rep. Adam Schiff) as “Schitt.”
This behavior wouldn’t even hold up in the most lenient third-grade classroom, much less the Oval Office – yet it’s the conduct of the man currently occupying the presidency.
Crimes aside, this behavior alone makes Donald Trump unfit to be president of the United States.
