Donald Trump asks Twitter followers to pray for him ahead of impeachment vote
- The US president implored that he ‘did nothing wrong’, amid charges that he abused his power and obstructed Congress
- Trump is on the cusp of being impeached by the House of Representatives in a vote that will leave a defining mark on his tenure at the White House
“Can you believe that I will be impeached today by the Radical Left, Do Nothing Democrats, AND I DID NOTHING WRONG! A terrible Thing. Read the Transcripts. This should never happen to another President again. Say a PRAYER!” Trump posted.
The president was also rapidly sharing the posts of supporters in the conservative media and quoted a leading Republican in Congress who denounced the impeachment process and said of Trump’s opponents: “all they had was never to let him have an easy breath”.
Trump is on the cusp of being impeached by the House, with a historic debate on charges that he abused his power and obstructed Congress set for Wednesday ahead of votes that will leave a defining mark on his tenure at the White House.
He earlier fired off a furious letter to Speaker Nancy Pelosi denouncing the “vicious crusade” against him, but he also acknowledged he was powerless to stop the expected outcome.
