, he tweeted in all-caps: "I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!"
Trump was impeached in the House roughly a month before this tweet. The House approved two articles of impeachment against Trump, one for abuse of power in relation to his dealings with Ukraine and another for obstruction of Congress over his efforts to stonewall the impeachment inquiry. The phone call Trump referenced in his Thursday tweet was seemingly his July 25 conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.During the call, Trump urged Zelensky to launch investigations into former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden, as well as a probe into a bogus conspiracy theory that Ukraine, not Russia, interfered in the 2016 election.
The call was so alarming to some of the officials who listened in that it prompted a whistleblower complaint from a US intelligence official, which spiraled into the impeachment inquiry. The investigation uncovered that the efforts to pressure Ukraine to launch investigations that would aid Trump's 2020 reelection campaign went far beyond the July 25 phone call.
Trump has often defended himself by citing the fact Zelensky has said he did not feel pressured during the phone call. But impeachment inquiry witnesses, congressional lawmakers, and Ukraine experts have all saidbecause of Ukraine's culture and his need to keep the US on his side amid an ongoing war with pro-Russia separatists.
