With President Donald Trump now banned from Twitter, his son is stepping up in the “tweet for everything” department.

Donald Trump Jr’s 2016 message about impeachment is getting a new round of attention in light of Wednesday’s events, in which his father was impeached for a second time:

Dear Clintons,

You know what's deplorable?

Being Impeached!!!#BasketOfDeplorables

— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) September 10, 2016

Trump Jr’s tweet was a response to then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who at the time said half of Trump’s supporters were in a “basket of deplorables,” or racist, sexist, xenophobic and/or homophobic people. But with the president now impeached twice in a little more than a year, Trump Jr’s observation about what impeachment means gained attention all over again:

How about twice? @DonaldJTrumpJr https://t.co/iJsLPkPbMk
