‘It’s Finally Sinking In’: Twitter Mocks Trump for Tweeting That He ‘Just Got Impeached’
I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!

Hours after his impeachment trial formally began in the Senate — and immediately following a testy exchange with a reporter in the Oval Office — President Donald Trump took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon.
“I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!” Trump wrote in all caps.
In fact, the House voted to impeach Trump on Dec. 18 — for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.

This seems like a delayed and unusually emphatic response to something that happened a month – and probably a thousand tweets – ago. t.co/AbFa0BFN7V

His insistence on framing it as a “perfect phone call” has always been weird and dumb because the average American couldn’t define what a “perfect phone call” even means. It’s like saying I raced a “perfect” marathon. t.co/vjPTMTmLaZ

Surely, he doesn’t really think this scandal is just about a phone call…? t.co/C9OgYeU2se

In reality the president was impeached for coercing a foreign leader into helping his own re-election campaign by investigating the Democrat he feared most and using $391 million in congressionally approved military aid as leverage.
And then trying to cover it up. t.co/s3a9CkH82A
