On Tuesday, President Donald Trump sent House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a scorching, no-holds-barred six-page letter blasting the Democrats’ impeachment inquiry as an “open war on American Democracy,” adding that Pelosi even “cheapened the importance of the very ugly word, impeachment!”
Trump On FIRE!
“Everyone, you included, knows what is really happening,” Trump wrote. “Your chosen candidate lost the election in 2016, in an Electoral College landslide (306-227), and you and your party have never recovered from this defeat.”

“So you have spent three straight years attempting to overturn the will of the American people and nullify their votes,” Trump said. “You view democracy as your enemy!”
The President continued, “You are the ones interfering in America’s elections. You are the ones subverting America’s Democracy. You are the ones Obstructing Justice. You are the ones bringing pain and suffering to our Republic for your own selfish personal, political, and partisan gain.”
Trump targeted Pelosi specifically for daring “to invoke the Founding Fathers in pursuit of this election-nullification scheme,” and “even worse,” for “offending Americans of faith by continually saying ‘I pray for the President,’ when you know this statement is not true, unless it is meant in a negative sense.”
Trump says he has no expectation that Democrats will stop their partisan impeachment fantasy and get back to work for Americans but he wrote a letter to Pelosi for historical purposes so 100 years from now people understand that this "can never happen to another President."??? pic.twitter.com/AJqM7xNBz1

‘It is a terrible thing you are doing’
“It is a terrible thing you are doing,” Trump added, “but you will have to live with it, not I!”
Trump said in the letter that Democrats want to take Americans attention away from the healthy economy and low unemployment. He brought up the Russian collusion accusation and Mueller Report, saying the Democrats attempts to attack him on that front had “dissolved into dust” but not before America had to go through a few years of “turmoil and torment.”
"This impeachment represents an unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power by Democrat Lawmakers, unequaled in nearly two and a half centuries of American legislative history.“ — President @realDonaldTrump in his letter to Speaker Nancy Pelosi

Trump Wants to Know Why Are Democrats Still So Scared to Examine Joe Biden’s Claims about Ukraine and Foreign Aid
Trump slammed Democrats for “trying to impeach the duly elected President of the United States for asserting Constitutionally based privileges that have been asserted on a bipartisan basis by administrations of both political parties throughout our nation’s history.”
Regarding abuse of power, Trump wrote that it was former Vice President Joe Biden who had “bragged” on video about influencing Ukraine leaders by threatening to withhold $1 billion in U.S. foreign aid. The President complained that no one seems to want to look into these accusations regarding Biden.
“More due process was afforded to those accused in the Salem Witch trials,” Trump wrote.
