TRUMP TWEET: Blasts whistleblower attorney over newly surfaced old tweets

In a fiery Twitter post Thursday morning, President Trump went after attorney Mark S. Zaid, who is representing the whistleblower whose allegations are being used by Democrats as the foundation for their impeachment inquiry.

On Wednesday, old 2017 Twitter posts by Zaid suddenly resurfaced, in which Zaid had declared that he would “get rid of” the newly inaugurated President Trump.  Zaid also declared just after Trump’s inauguration that the “coup has started.”

Trump tweeted Thursday morning:

Based on the information released last night about the Fake Whistleblowers attorney, the Impeachment Hoax should be ended IMMEDIATELY! There is no case, except against the other side!

Below are some of the Twitter posts by Zaid in 2017:

#coup has started. First of many steps. #rebellion. #impeachment will follow ultimately. #lawyers https://t.co/FiNBQo6v0S

#coup has started. As one falls, two more will take their place. #rebellion #impeachment

Another disgraceful and disrespectful post that demeans our democratic system. Every day that goes by brings us closer to impeachment https://t.co/dzk4fghM2I

We need some faith. At some point even Cong Ryan needs to wake up and smell the roses

It won’t happen now, I know. But I do have faith in even Republican Congress that there will be a straw that breaks camel’s back

100%. I’m not hiding anything. Anti-Trump. Worst presidential choice in modern history. Not a repub or dem issue

And 45 years from now we might be recalling stories regarding the impeachment of @realDonaldTrump. I’ll be old, but will be worth the wait https://t.co/x6rvUIJJdL

Since Jan 20th, I would much rather be in Canada. What a great country! We’ll be great again when @realDonaldTrump leaves. https://t.co/oo2Si8EfFb

It’s very scary. We will get rid of him, and this country is strong enough to survive even him and his supporters. We have to.

Not shocking at all. I predict @CNN will play a key role in @realDonaldTrump not finishing out his full term as president https://t.co/7QPOxATrBS
