President Trump, in an exclusive interview with Fox News' Ainsley Earhardt, warned that the “market would crash” if he's ever impeached -- while questioning why Democrats would even consider that course in the future.

“I don’t know how you can impeach somebody who’s done a great job,” Trump said, in the interview which aired Thursday on "Fox & Friends."

The president weighed in on calls from the left to pursue impeachment if Democrats seize the House in the midterms. That speculation kicked up following the plea deal struck by his former attorney Michael Cohen claiming the president was involved in hush-money payments and admitting campaign finance violations related to them....

If Cohen can plead guilty to things that are not crimes then the Dems can impeach Trump for beating the polyester pants off of Hillary ,LOL

And a lot worse. They need to proceed very slowly, if at all.

I don’t like where this is going. The more of this kind talk there is the more the very notion picks up momentum and dare l say credibly.

That’s a no-brainer right there. The markets would crash.

Well, it might not crash....

But the FED would have to crank the printing presses up to full speed and helicopter in tens of millions of fiat dollars into the Stock Exchanges like they did daily during the 0bama years.

I love how he stands up to this. Not trying to scuttle away in the background for a while and hope it subsides. Trump no doubt enjoys winding them up but he also is doing a good thing by throwing down the gauntlet of the obstructionist “resistance” because it shows the American people he is a fighter while they are good-for-nothing do-nothing politicians.

This is scary. Democrats know this but they don’t care. They are not the least bit concerned about this country nor it’s people.

Even an attempt to impeach Trump would show investors that the United States is unstable and the market would react to a President Pence.

I think he's right. Impeaching a man for no high crime would wreak havok on our country.

If they try, it will be clear that they had no idea what resistance really looks like. Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
