Impeachment Talk Throws Trump Into Tailspin- Paige Bowman
Although it's only been rumors, talk about the impeachment of the president by Democrats send President Trump into a fit. On Thursday, Trump stormed out of a meeting with council members and refused to continue until lawmakers stopped investigating him. He refused to talk to a House Speaker and a Senate Democratic Leader. The allegations towards Trump have been steadily increasing, and he has been getting more and more heat since the Mueller Report came out recently. During the display, people could describe him as having a tantrum. He refused to even say the word "impeachment", rather calling it "the I word.", House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said he was "disappointed in Trump" after missing an opportunity to pass legislation that would give greatly needed funding to fix the nations crumbling roads and bridges. Earlier that day, Pelosi accused Trump of a "cover-up" a phrase that is connected to Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal. Her, as well as many Democrats, are worried for ourselves, and our country.
