Trump Calls Himself an 'Economy Plus' President, Says He's Not Worried About Imminent Impeachment

Hours before the House of Representatives is set to vote on his impeachment, President Donald Trump sent defiant late night tweets insisting he is innocent and touting the strength of the U.S. economy.

Earlier on Tuesday, Trump sent an excoriating letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in which he lambasted her "impeachment charade" which he described as an "unprecedented and unconstitutional abuse of power by Democrat Lawmakers."

"More due process was afforded to those accused in the Salem Witch Trials" Trump's letter said.

Then in a pair of tweets sent at 11.10 pm E.T. the president referred to the inspector general's report on the Russia investigation, which found the FBI filed a misleading request for permission to wiretap ex-Trump aide, Carter Page.

Ex-FBI director James Comey had earlier admitted to Fox News there was "real sloppiness" with the bureau's effort to get warrants to secretly surveil Page under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court Act (FISA).

Trump tweeted that if former FBI head James Comey and others in the FBI "were dirty cops and cheated on the FISA Court, wouldn't all of these phoney cases have to be overturned or dismissed?"

"They went after me with the Fake Dossier, paid for by Crooked Hillary & the DNC, which they illegally presented to FISA," he tweeted.

He followed this up with the message: "They want to Impeach me [I'm not worried!], and yet they were all breaking the law in so many ways.

"How can they do that and yet impeach a very successful [Economy Plus] President of the United States, who has done nothing wrong? These people are Crazy!"

Trump sent one last tweet before midnight, saying: "Voters say the Democrats are trying to take away their votes. Pelosi was right the first time," referring to the speaker's initial reluctance to pursue impeachment.

"Impeachment has backfired thoroughly on the Democrats. How can you Impeach the President for going to the courts?" Trump added. Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment.

On Tuesday, protesters took to the streets from Oregon to Florida, while thousands rallied in New York's Times Square in favor of Trump's removal from office, CNN reported.

Trump faces two articles of impeachment regarding abuse of power and obstruction of justice which he says is an attempt to overturn the results of the 2016 election.

In its executive summary, the House Intelligence Committee headlined the key issues as: "The president conditioned a White House meeting and military aid to Ukraine on a public announcement of investigations beneficial to his reelection campaign" and; "The president obstructed the impeachment inquiry by instructing witnesses and agencies to ignore subpoenas for documents and testimony."
