Trump Lashes Out at Democratic Activist Running Ads Calling for Impeachment – Drawing More Attention to the Ads
Tom Steyer Calls Trump ‘A Clear and Present Danger Who’s Mentally Unstable’
Before 8 AM Friday morning President Donald Trump had already posted six tweets. Among them, one on the JFK files release, one congratulating “Fox & Friends” for a “Really great job and show!” and one – his first of the morning – attacking Tom Steyer, a billionaire philanthropist and Democratic activist who is currently running TV ads across the country calling for Trump’s impeachment.
Wacky & totally unhinged Tom Steyer, who has been fighting me and my Make America Great Again agenda from beginning, never wins elections!

It’s unclear why Trump is calling Steyer “Wacky & totally unhinged,” unless he thinks spending $10 million on 60-second TV spots making excellent arguments why the president should be impeached is “wacky.”
And if “never wins elections!” means Steyer supports only losing candidates, that’s a lie.Â
But Trump’s tweet Friday morning only drew attention to Steyer’s ad, which “accuses Trump of raising the likelihood of nuclear war with North Korea, obstructing justice in his termination of former FBI director James Comey, and violating the Constitution by taking money from foreign governments and threatening to shut down press organizations,” as Forbes had reported.

On his website, NeedToImpeach, Steyer makes a compelling case for impeachment and has a petition you can sign.
