The always prolific tweeter-in-chief appears to have hit a new record.
The presidents @realDonaldTrump account had tweeted and retweeted 115 times by late Thursday night, marking what could be his most active day on the platform yet.
The avalanche came as the House judiciary committee pressed toward a historic vote on Friday to approve articles of impeachment against him.
Trump has noticeably ramped up his tweeting during the impeachment inquiry. He tweeted 77 times on Wednesday and 105 times on Sunday, repeatedly declaring his innocence and retweeting comments and video of supporters defending his conduct.

Trump's record-high 123 tweets yesterday were more in a single day than he posted in any full week in 2017. All told, it brought his total since Sunday to 367, the most since taking office of any week with two days still to go.

and not working. When in the hell is he working even? Imbecile and idiot. He doesn't deserve this office.
Every republican should be asked this question as to what do they think rump is even doing in office while he's tweeting? Every one of these scumbags needs to be thrown out of office. They are obviously not interested in fixing the problems of the day facing this country, and instead, attacking any and all who 'attacks' them simply for saying something counter to their marching orders (the 'party' orders).
