President Trump wants House Republicans to consider booting Democrats behind the latest impeachment push against — ripping two lefty lawmakers who backed a recent resolution as “total Whackjobs.”
“The Democrats are really out of control. They have lost everything, especially their minds! These Radical Left Lunatics are into the ‘Impeachment thing’ again,” Trump raged in a lengthy Truth Social post late Thursday.
“They have already got two ‘No Name,’ little respected Congressmen, total Whackjobs both, throwing the ‘Impeachment’ of DONALD J. TRUMP around, for about the 20th time, even though they have no idea for what I would be Impeached.
“Maybe it should be for cleaning up the MESS that they left us on the Border, or the Highest Inflation in our Country’s History or, perhaps, it should be the incompetent Withdrawal from Afghanistan, or Russia, Russia, Russia/Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine, or the Attack of Israel on October 7th that only proceeded because they allowed Iran to regain Great Wealth,” he added.
The commander-in-chief’s fury came after Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich) announced Monday that he had filed seven articles of impeachment against the president for various actions, including the high-profile deportation of alleged MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
The Detroit-based lawmaker also cited “unlawful” cuts carried out by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency as alleged impeachable actions.
While Trump didn’t name names in his post, Thanedar’s impeachment resolution only has one co-sponsor — Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill).
“The Republicans should start to think about expelling them from Congress for all of the crimes that they have committed, especially around Election time(s). These are very dishonest people that won’t let our Country heal,” Trump said.
“Why do we allow them to continuously use Impeachment as a weapon against the President of the United States who, by all accounts, is working hard to SAVE OUR COUNTRY. It’s the same playbook that they used in my First Term, and Republicans are not going to allow them to get away with it again.”
“These are total LOWLIFES, who hate our Country, and everything it stands for. Perhaps we should start playing this game on them, and expel Democrats for the many crimes that they have committed — And these are REAL crimes,” he continued.
Earlier this week, three other House Democrats quietly withdrew their names from the list of co-sponsors on Thanedar’s impeachment resolution after reportedly finding out the filing hadn’t been approved by party bigwigs.
Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), Rep. Robin Kelly (D-Ill.) and Rep. Kweisi Mfume (D-Md.) each went to the House floor to request removal of their names, each of which was granted by the House clerk, The Hill reported.
“Congressman Mfume removed himself as a cosponsor from H. Res. 353 because he was made aware it was not cleared by Democratic leadership and not fully vetted legally — and he preferred to err on the side of caution,” a Mfume spokesperson said.
“The Congresswoman was under the impression that the resolution was drafted and reviewed by both the House Judiciary Committee and Leadership when she originally signed on during a vote series on the floor,” a rep for Kelly added.
Nadler’s office, meanwhile, didn’t respond to The Post’s request for comment.
