WASHINGTON, DC - NOVEMBER 17: U.S. President Donald Trump speaks to the media before departing the White House for California, where he is scheduled to view damage from the state's wildfires, on November 17, 2018 in Washington, DC. At least 71 people have been killed and more than 1,000 people are missing due to multiple devastating fires across the state. The President spoke about the investigation into Jamal Khashoggi's murder, the Mueller investigation, and the migrant caravan approaching the southern border.

As the threat of impeachment grows—and because it’s a day ending in the letter y—Donald Trump spent Wednesday morning rage tweeting. While Trump did toss in a couple of justifications for his decision to abandon U.S. allies to probable genocide, his spittle-flecked outrage was mostly focused on the threat to the criminal enterprise he’s been running out of the White House.

Trump tweeted Fox News clips. Twice. He lied about the whistleblower. He sobbed that Adam Schiff should be impeached (never mind that members of the House cannot be impeached). He proclaimed that Republicans will win (in all caps) in 2020. And, after lying about who described his call with the president of Ukraine as “crazy, frightening, and completely lacking in substance,” Trump demanded an apology.

....No Pressure at all said Ukraine! Very congenial, a perfect call. The Whistleblower and others spoke BEFORE seeing the Transcript. Now they must apologize to me and stop this ridiculous impeachment!

Fat chance, Don.
