Trump Calls for the Immediate ‘Forced’ Resignation of Rep. Adam Schiff from Congress
Donald Trump is calling for the resignation of one of his fiercest critics in U.S. Congress: California Rep. Adam Schiff.
After an earlier tweet that seemed to indicate a more transcendent Trump, in which he revealed that he has “learned to live” with what he considers a “crazy” Fake News media, Trump has returned to a more vengeful demeanor in calling for the resignation of Rep. Schiff.
And Trump actually called Schiff out for LYING.
“Congressman Adam Schiff, who spent two years knowingly and unlawfully lying and leaking, should be forced to resign from Congress!” the president said in an early morning tweet.
Congressman Adam Schiff, who spent two years knowingly and unlawfully lying and leaking, should be forced to resign from Congress!

Rep. Schiff is the current chair of the House Intel committee and a dogged critic of Trump. He has also refused to accept Attorney General William Barr’s four-page letter that summarized the highly anticipated Mueller Report in a manner that was most favorable to Trump.
During an interview with The Washington Post that was published Wednesday, Schiff doubled down on his claim of collusion saying “Undoubtedly, there is collusion,” he told the paper. “We will continue to investigate the counterintelligence issues.”
Trump can say whatever he wants via Twitter, but he does not have the authority to call for a sitting member of Congress’ removal or forced resignation, especially for LYING and Twitter pointed this out:
Politicians who lie should resign ? Hmmmm. https://t.co/NmslYRaHMd

@realDonaldTrump is this a fucking joke!?! If "lying" means someone should step down then you must IMMEDIATELY RESIGN! Do that and then you have some basis to ask liars to resign. Until then you are nothing but a hypocritical moron who is soon to be Primaried! #BuhByeDonnie https://t.co/0AisxF7KQO

There you go again–projecting your faults onto others.
You've spent the last 2+ years lying and leaking disinformation in an attempt to improve your polling.
But even Cult 45ers know how dishonest you really are.
They, the 40%, tolerate it. The rest of us do not.
Forget '20. https://t.co/yNwmJ5p03l
