WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the Democratic lawmaker leading the impeachment case against him, Representative Adam Schiff, has “not paid the price, yet” for his actions, a statement Schiff said he viewed as a threat.
The vitriol from Trump against Schiff and other Democrats followed three days of their arguments in his impeachment trial before the U.S. Senate on charges he abused the power of his office by pressuring Ukraine to investigate a political rival, and then tried to obstruct an investigation by Congress.
“Shifty Adam Schiff is a CORRUPT POLITICIAN, and probably a very sick man. He has not paid the price, yet, for what he has done to our Country!” Trump said on Twitter.
Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” if he took the Republican president’s social media post as a threat, Schiff said, “I think it’s intended to be.”
Schiff said on NBC he was making the argument “that it’s going to require moral courage to stand up to this president.”
“This is a wrathful and vindictive president,” he said. “I don’t think that there’s any doubt about it and if you think there is, look at the president’s tweets about me today, saying that I should pay a price.”

The vitriol from Trump...
Another unbiased article :)
LOL at commies calling this a threat..let’s see..YOUR HEAD ON A PIKE..calling Trump a Nazi, a dictator, worse than Stalin, I can go on and on and on, but nah that’s not a threat..but tweeting out that scum bag Schiff will pay the political price, yeah that’s a threat..note to commies, if someone is going to threaten someone, they dont tweet it to 60 million people OK
It was not a threat, just a simple observation.
It is always “vitriol” from Trump.
Never any “vitriol” from the Democrats for three and a half years.
I hope Schiff’s life is ruined...
He’s on the wrong side of the future
Stand bye buttstain.
Bugeyes should pay a price, such as being impeached for lying to Congress, lying to the American people for his own benefit.
The Delusional Lying Leftist Media ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the room of the Leftist/Dem vitriol AGAINST Trump.
Same as it ever was.
No mention of the three years of vitriol against Trump from Schitt and other DemonRATS.
Reference Frank Pentangeli: “When a plot against the emperor fails.....”
Rooters loves the bug-eyed bolshevik.
So criminals can accuse the police of being “wrathful and vindictive”?
You Bug-Eyed Faggot, your time is over.
Schittforbrains needs to be condemned publicly for every bold-faced lie and deliberate omission he made in the impeachment and trial. After the Senate votes to acquit, they need to pass a resolution condemning/ censuring Schittforbrains. After we take back the House, the House needs to vote to censure or even expel Schittforbrains.
Schiff is going to go down in flames as he crashes all hopes of defeating Trump. His biggest accomplishment will maybe be a STAR on Hollywood’s walk of fame (if they are going to reward failure). Mr. Bug Eyes will be looking at another bleak failure on top of his movie scripts failures. It all adds up to a big fat ZERO.
No ...A PROMISE!
Next time out...The Repubs are going to put a candidate up against Schitt that’s gonna whoop his a**.
soo all they’ve got left is pulling out the victim card now- obviously- this is nothing but a last desperate flailing of a failed impeachment coup attempt-
