WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he was not concerned that he would get impeached and that payments made ahead of the 2016 election by his former personal attorney Michael Cohen to two women did not violate campaign finance laws.
“It’s hard to impeach somebody who hasn’t done anything wrong and who’s created the greatest economy in the history of our country,” Trump told Reuters in an Oval Office interview.
“I’m not concerned, no. I think that the people would revolt if that happened,” he said.”
Does Trump imagine that an rebel army of Cesar Sayocs will rise up and come to his rescue? What an impressive display of hubris and wishful thinking! Saying in effect: Should I be impeached Americans will abandon our democratic institutions in favor of fascist rule.
I imagine narcissists are susceptible to Delusions of Grandeur.
