Donald Trump Reads Aloud 2017 Tweets from Whistleblower’s Lawyer Declaring a ‘Coup’Breitbart, Nov 6, 2019
President Donald Trump kicked off his political rally in Lousiana on Wednesday by reading off tweets declaring a “coup†against the president in January 2017.
The president pulled a printed copy of the Fox News story out of his jacket and read it to the cheering crowd.

“Coup has started. First of many steps,†Zaid wrote. “Rebellion, Impeachment will follow ultimately.â€
Trump called Zaid a “sleazeball†and read another post on Twitter from the lawyer predicting that “CNN will play a key role in Donald Trump not finishing out his first term.â€
“It’s all a hoax, it’s a scam, and you know who helps them, these people, the media,†Trump said, pointing to the back of the hall, as the crowd booed.

“Its a disgrace, it’s so bad what they do to our country,†Trump said. “They rip the guts out of our count, and its a shame, and they shouldn’t be allowed to do it, and people should stop … because we have a country to run.â€
