Trump Claims US Economy Will ‘Totally Collapse’ If Democrats Take Control
President Donald Trump binged Fox News tonight, which led to him claiming that the US economy will “totally collapse” if Democrats do take the House and impeach him.
“Crazy Maxine Waters: ‘After we impeach Trump, we’ll go after Mike Pence. We’ll get him,'” tweeted Trump. “Where are the Democrats coming from? The best Economy in the history of our country would totally collapse if they ever took control!”

“And when they say that, I say ‘impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment,'” she added.
