The tweet came shortly after the Senate issued a summons to Trump that will require him to respond to the charges of impeachment in writing by Saturday evening.
On Thursday, as the US Senate opened the impeachment trial of the US President with senators taking oath of “impartial justice” as jurors, Donald Trump took to Twitter to vent. And his all caps tweet is now a meme on social media.
US President Donald Trump was technically impeached by the House of Representatives in December 2019 and here’s what’s going to happen next. But Trump, who has maintained his innocence, tweeted, “I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!”
I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL!

The tweet came shortly after the Senate issued a summons to Trump that will require him to respond to the charges of impeachment in writing by Saturday. The president has insisted that he did nothing wrong, and he dismissed the trial anew at the White House saying, “It’s totally partisan. It’s a hoax.”
On Twitter, his tweet became a meme about how people whine when things don’t go their way and there were comparisons made with breakup phone calls. ‘I just got impeached’ with replaced with other scenarios with hilarious results.

Also, talk about missing the point. Trump saying “I JUST GOT IMPEACHED FOR MAKING A PERFECT PHONE CALL” is like Jefferey Dahmer saying “I JUST GOT ARRESTED FOR KEEPING MY FRIDGE FULLY STOCKED.”

Trump faces two charges after the House voted to impeach him last month. One, that he abused his presidential power by pressuring Ukraine to investigate Democratic rival Joe Biden, using military aid to the country as leverage. Trump is also charged with obstructing the probe by Congress.
