The United States would turn into a “Third World country” because of the precedent his hypothetical impeachment would set, President Donald Trump stated.

“If the opposite party becomes president, every time before it even starts, before you’ve even found out whether or not he or she is going to do a great job, they’ll say, ‘We want to impeach him,’ and you’ll impeach him,” Trump added. “It’s so ridiculous.”

Also, he noted that the Democrats like the term “impeachment,” and that they use this word regardless of his accomplishments and successes.
