Um...thanks?

Despite long-held beliefs that Democrats launching impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump would backfire, public support for the President's impeachment continues to rise as more information regarding Trump's corrupt dealings with foreign leaders comes to light.

Trump's impeachment got an unexpected—albeit likely accidental—endorsement this morning from its own subject: President Donald Trump himself.


In a caps-ridden tweet touting a boost in median household income, the President ended with a sentence that seemed to support his own impeachment:

"Impeach the Pres."

Read the bizarre assembly of words below.

Soon, "Impeach the Pres" was the top trending topic in the United States, with people eager to seize upon the gaffe.

While his intent may have been something completely different, people were surprised that Trump said something they agreed with.

As for Trump's claims that median household income is the highest ever, the President's claim is misleading. According to the Washington Post, household income is "roughly the same as it was 20 years ago," when adjusted for inflation. Median income is rising only at around half the rate that it rose in 2017.

Income inequality, however, is at its highest ever recorded.

Sarah Jessica Parker Claps Back At Conservative Critics Who Want Her To 'Shut Up' About Politics And 'Act'

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
