Trump has taken to his Twitter account to react to the news of his impeachment by the House of Representatives.
The US House
of Representatives, on Wednesday, had voted largely to impeach President
Trump’s abuse of power and obstruction of Congress in relating to dealings with
Ukraine.
Two articles
of impeachment were passed over his attitude in the Ukraine scandal.
The issue
will now be transferred to the Senate, where it will be determined whether to
convict and remove the president from office come January 2020.
Donald Trump
reacted via his Twitter account with the inscription “IN REALITY, THEY’RE NOT
AFTER ME THEY’RE AFTER YOU, I’M JUST IN THE WAY’
However, the
president has denied any wrongdoings; he was present at a Michigan rally
earlier as the Representatives voted on his impeachment. Trump said, “They’ve
been trying to impeach me from day one”
“After three
years of sinister witch hunts, scams, hoaxes, tonight, House Democrats are
trying to nullify the ballots of tens of millions of patriotic Americans”
Trump will
now be the third sitting US president to be impeached after Bill Clinton and
Andrew Johnson.
