Trump adds dishwashers to his list of household grievances, joining toilets and light bulbs
While the House was voting to impeach him Wednesday night, President Trump was in Battle Creek, Michigan, holding a freewheeling rally for a crowd no larger than 5,400, according to the local fire chief, though hundreds also watched on a TV screen outside. At 2 hours and 2 minute, the rally tied Trump's record for longest speech, and "many attendees were streaming for the exits before he concluded," the Detroit Free Press reports.
Trump took the occasion to lament his impeachment and attack Hillary Clinton, his 2020 Democratic rivals, the FBI, ObamaCare, and Rep. Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) and her late husband, former Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.). He also praised the tax overhaul he signed two years ago and the regulations he plans to cut, circling back to his line about flushing the toilet 10 to 15 times — and complaining about how the media covered that comment.
