This clear declaration that Trump views the DOJ to be an entity designed to impose his political retribution - alongside the clear evidence that it is already being used in this way - is impeachable.

Trump might be a tyrannical fascist, an irredeemable racist and a completely demented old man, but at the US Open he's just like everyone else - an easily recognized celebrity with entirely too much money pretending to enjoy tennis as a status symbol to fill the hollow parts of themselves.
