Impeachment ad triggers Trump meltdown as polls increasingly show Americans want him out

Impeachment ad triggers Trump meltdown as polls increasingly show Americans want him out
Trump claimed an ad calling for his impeachment is "wacky," but polls show Americans have consistently wanted him removed from office after months of incompetence and corruption.
By Oliver Willis OCTOBER 27, 2017

Donald Trump is very upset that philanthropist and activist Tom Steyer is running an ad calling for his impeachment, but recent polling shows Americans are already onboard.

Steyer purchased time for the ad on Trump’s favorite show, “Fox & Friends,” smack dab in the middle of programming on the right-wing propaganda network, Fox News. The gambit worked, and caught Trump’s attention as he spends his valuable time watching a television network dedicated to making him happy.

The ad is part of the “Need to Impeach” campaign, which cites three reasons to “stop Trump now”: Trump and his team’s continued lies about his interactions with Russia; Trump’s discussions about possibly pardoning himself, aides, and family; and the threat posed to national security by “refusing to stand up to Russia and engaging in brinkmanship with North Korea.”

I want him to know how much he is hated and reviled by a majority of people in this world.

In addition, the polling is headed in the right direction...downward for his approval rating. He is losing some of his core including the White male, non-College educated. The bloom is off the rose for some of these people and they will talk amongst themselves over the Thanksgiving holidays and that won’t be good for tRump. As they admit to one an other that they are not happy with his performance, if not his behavior, the feeling may spread. He can gin up all the fake news he wants but it will be like putting a Bandaid on a hemorrhage.

With the news tonight of charges from the grand jury, things are getting hot. So the news over the next few days is going to be especially difficult for tRumpolini. I see lots of meltdowns and tantrums in his future. The very near future! .

I will never understand why this fake news outlet has any credibility with anyone outside its closeted world of lies and hate.

MSM, I am talking to you.

on MSNBC. He has been running the ad a lot on the local stations in San Diego (blue city and state) as well as nationwide on CNN and MSNBC. I hope he is running it in the red cities and states since they are key Fux News propaganda viewers.

Many of them choose the darkside though.

Thank you Mr Steyer!

That alone pretty much made sure Trump would see it

Trump has such a fragile ego and is so insecure it's pathetic

I would have given 100 bucks to have been in the room when he first saw it
