‘You're lucky I’m your president’: Trump unperturbed by looming impeachment

December 11, 2019 3:20 PMWASHINGTON: For a man on the brink of becoming only the third US president to be impeached, Donald Trump sure sounds confident.

The Republican businessman is now so entangled in controversy that it takes a hardened Washington politics junkie merely to unravel the strands. That strategy led to one of the two impeachment charges being levied against him: obstruction of Congress. “If you are going to impeach me, do it now, fast, so we can have a fair trial in the Senate,” he dared the Democrats in one of his torrents of tweets on the crisis.The latest national numbers on polling analysis website FiveThirtyEight look bad for Trump.

Just as in 2016, the 2020 election is expected to go down to the wire in handful of swing states as Trump and his eventual challenger try to claw their way to the magic number of 270 electoral college votes.
