With talks of impeachment heating up, Donald Trump believes there will be consequences for the United States if he is found guilty.
Trump expressed his sentiments in another late-night Twitter storm Sunday, specifically calling out Democrats for putting him under investigation.
The president's latest Twitter rant quotes evangelical Southern Baptist preacher Robert Jeffress, who expressed his support for Trump in an interview with Fox and Friends on Sunday.
“Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats can’t put down the Impeachment match," Trump wrote on Twitter, quoting Jeffress' comments from the interview. "They know they couldn’t beat him in 2016 against Hillary Clinton, and they’re increasingly aware of the fact that they won’t win against him in 2020, and Impeachment is the only tool they have to get rid of Donald J. Trump. And the Democrats don’t care if they burn down and destroy this nation in the process."

Trump continued to quote Jeffress' Fox interview. The preacher also said he has never seen the Evangelical Christians "more angry over any issue than this attempt to illegitimately remove this President from office, overturn the 2016 election and negate the votes of millions of Evangelicals in the process."
"They know the only Impeachable offense that President Trump has committed was beating Hillary Clinton in 2016," Trump tweeted, echoing the preacher's comments. "That’s the unpardonable sin for which the Democrats will never forgive him."

According to Jeffress, there will be a "Civil War-like fracture" from which the country will never heal if the Democrats are successful in removing the president from office.

In the interview with Fox and Friends, Jeffress said he doesn't take Pelosi seriously when she says it's a sad time for the country and we need prayer.
"It's hard to take Nancy Pelosi's call for prayer seriously," Jeffress said. "It reminds me of a pyromaniac with a match in hand about to set fire to a building, saying 'please pray with me that the damage I'm about to cause isn't too severe.' If you're really sincere about that prayer then put down the dang match."
According to The Washington Post, Jeffress has been an avid Trump supporter since 2016.
Jeffress introduced Trump in 2016 in his Dallas church which brings 14,000 worshipers, The Washington Post reported.
