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.”

Schiff is just trying to claw back a little sympathy after that “heads on pikes” gaffe. Trump meant a POLITICAL price — any attempt to suggest that this was a physical threat should have been dismissed by media editors (if they still have those). Yet the Media is already shifting fire to exactly how they plan to use the (failed) impeachment to maximum political advantage for 2020.
This baloney impeachment was conducted by the Democrats to provide a smokescreen to delay or prevent the prosecution of Democrat leaders for the crimes they have committed.
The Democrats knew their case for impeachment was baloney.
They just kept pushing it.
That’s why there should be no mercy for these Democrats when they are prosecuted.
They were given every opportunity to back off on a baloney case, but they kept on pushing.
They need to be made a lesson of.
Being a Democrat politician isn’t a license to steal, and when you’re caught, accept it and don’t waste even more hard-earned taxpayer money.

For Schiff, the hyperbole is all for show.

So what if he did threaten you, Shitthead? What are you gonna do about it? Lie some more? Hold more sham impeachment hearings? Read more fantasies into the congressional record? How’s all that been working out for you so far, a$$hole?
But the last “wrathful and vindictive” president had a more “wrathful and vindictive” wife who would have been the most “wrathful and vindictive” beast to ever set foot in the White House!
Pushback against these criminals? About time.
Punchable Clown Face’s bloody severed head should be paraded around DC for comedic relief.

Or a metaphysical, karmic price; that Schiff's malign, evil actions will manifest in terrible physical illness, or worse yet, being doomed to an eternity in hell.
“This is a wrathful and vindictive president,”
This is what shrinks call projecting. Anyone watching this evil little prick would say this describes him.
Is there any evidence Schiff is a gay boy?
It wouldn’t surprise me.
Nothing would surprise me about this low-life.
He may not get any payback in this life, the swamp being deep and wide, providing plenty of cover for swamp vermin.
But I sure wouldn’t want to be in Schiff’s shoes and facing the certainty of eternal damnation.
Using the same logic, I guess we were all mean people when we finally went up against poor Hitler.
“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.”
By the looks of it, I'm not sure Schifferbrains' lover with the black eye will do much more than "throw a party, go in a hot bath and open his veins."
Trump knows even more than we know.
This would need to happen, but judging how weak the pubbies are when they are in control of house, senate and presidency, I can see them saying we need to let bygones be bygones with “Shiff for brains” getting off with not even a slap on the wrist.
He signed up to be the Official U.S. authorized and approved: “Don’t be that guy” guy.
I mean, who does that? What a stupid thing to volunteer for.
I can only imagine the hell that is coming for him soon in this life, not to mention the hell that is waiting for him when his game is over.
Definitely don’t be that guy. What an idiot.
