Trump Jr. just let House Intelligence Committee Chairman and failed impeachment manager Rep. Adam Schiff know how much of a help he was in getting rid of some problem children.
As we all know the impeachment effort by the Democrats was all about damaging or removing the President from office before the 2020 election. But, Donald Trump Jr. is a glass half full kind of a guy and saw some good from it. Trump Jr. said that the impeachment effort exposed some people that needed to be purged from the administration.
The Washington Times reported:
The first son credited Mr. Schiff, a California Democrat who led the impeachment investigation, shortly after the president removed Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman from his assignment at the National Security Council and fired Gordon Sondland from his diplomatic posting.
“Allow me a moment to thank—and this may be a bit of a surprise—Adam Schiff. Were it not for his crack investigation skills, @realDonaldTrump might have had a tougher time unearthing who all needed to be fired. Thanks, Adam,” he said on Twitter.

The media reported that Vindman was “fired,” however he and his twin brother Yevgeny were reassigned. Gordon Sondland was also recalled from his duty as Ambassador to the European Union. Both NSC staff and Ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the president.
Even officials inside the NSC were concerned about Vindman as expressed by his boss during the impeachment investigation in the House.
Top official Tim Morrison said Alexander Vindman’s bosses had a lot of concerns about him:
-Judgement
-Potential leaker
-Did not keep his bosses in the loop on what he was doing
-Went around his bosses’ backs
-Was mad he was cut out of working on Ukraine pic.twitter.com/Z9qgSVs9dt— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) November 19, 2019
Schiff has not responded to Trump Jr. but that little twerp is probably fuming.
