Americans Dig Out 2014 Tweet Where Trump Asked, “Are You Allowed To Impeach A President For Gross Incompetence?”

Hours after Donald Trump’s impeachment, Americans have dug out a tweet he made  in 2014 while Barack Obama was still the President of the United States.

The tweet was made exactly on June 4, 2014. In the tweet, Trump wrote: “Are you allowed to impeach a president for gross incompetence?.”

Recall that Trump was yesterday impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress by the House of Representatives. This makes him become the third president in US history to be impeached.

Below is a screenshot of the tweet and some reactions.

About a year ago, I bought this mug because I thought it was hilarious. One year later, I have no regrets.

Yes @realDonaldTrump, that is indeed possible. That’s why you’re being impeached right now 🤣
