Though he says he isn’t the least bit worried about his upcoming impeachment trial in the U.S. Senate, President Donald Trump again proved that he’s terrified about what may come out when that proceeding begins in the very near future, even it’s only the stigma of being impeached.
Trump has been tweeting all Sunday morning, and some of his postings have addressed the subject of being impeached:
Why did Nervous Nancy allow corrupt politician Shifty Schiff to lie before Congress? He must be a Witness, and so should she!

Why should I have the stigma of Impeachment attached to my name when I did NOTHING wrong? Read the Transcripts! A totally partisan Hoax, never happened before. House Republicans voted 195-0, with three Dems voting with the Republicans. Very unfair to tens of millions of voters!

Oh, so now Trump wants witnesses? Does that mean he’d be willing to waive executive privilege and allow former National Security Adviser John Bolton and acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney to testify under oath at the impeachment trial?
As for reading the transcripts, we’d all love to read the full word-for-word transcription of Trump’s phone conversations with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, but the White House refuses to release them. Does that sound like something an innocent person would do?
Trump was roundly mocked on social media for his whining:
AGREED!
So we the people demand that Mulvaney, Bolton, Duffey, Blair and Pompeo be called as witnesses IMMEDIATELY.
You claim they’d clear you, so let them testify.

You can continue to attack @SpeakerPelosi and @RepAdamSchiff if it makes ya feel good, but you’re the only one who’s been impeached and under massive federal and state investigation… #Trump #Pelosi #Schiff

If ANYBODY on the House Intelligence Committee should testify, it should be @DevinNunes so he can explain as the Minority Leader he was conducting testimony WITHOUT revealing phone calls with a primary actor (Lev Parnas)
So you might not want to go down that rabbit hole ?

I thought you didn’t want witnesses. Dementia attack again?

Rep Schiff simply paraphrased the transcript ( which had been edited by your people )

Trump is scared. And he should be, because as he noted, the stigma of impeachment will hang over him like a foul stench for the rest of his life and into the history books.
