In his first reaction to the release of phone call transcript between President Trump and the president of Ukraine that sparked new calls for impeachment hearings, Trump has declared that he did nothing wrong.
In a campaign fundraising email, he said, "I've done nothing wrong, trust me, you saw the transcript."
He also blasted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Democratic "witch hunt" to remove him from office in time for the reelection campaign.
"Nancy Pelosi formally called for the first step towards my IMPEACHMENT! This is just another smear job and pathetic attempt by Democrats to rip the power from the people," he said, in the campaign email to supporters.
The money raised by the email, he said, will be fund an "Impeachment Defense Task Force."
In a separate statement, Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale called the impeachment drive a “hoax,†and said “pure hatred†is driving Democrats.
