Depending on where you sit, there’s new evidence in what some see as an orchestrated campaign against President Trump. It is found in a social media tweet from 2017.
In that January 2017 tweet, Mark Zaid, an attorney now representing an alleged “whistleblower” in the Trump impeachment effort, wrote a “coup has started” and “impeachment will follow ultimately.”
A few months later, still in 2017, Zaid tweeted more. “I predict @CNN will play a key role in @realDonaldTrump not finishing out his full term as president” and “We will get rid of him, and this country is strong enough to survive even him and his supporters.”
Zaid has been arguing that the alleged whistleblower’s identity should be kept secret. There are questions surrounding how that person’s information surfaced, and the extent of the cooperation or collusion (depending on your view) between him and Democrats in Congress.
Zaid has stated, in his own defense, that his mention of a “coup” simply referred to what he saw as a lawful attempt by attorneys to remove an unlawful president from office.
Other tweets from Zaid, as reported by Fox News, include “‘as one falls, two more will take their place,’ apparently referring to Trump administration employees who defy the White House. Zaid promised that the ‘coup’ would occur in ‘many steps’.”
