Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner & Chair of @FEC. There’s a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn’t it. I’ve been lucky to serve the American people & stir up some good trouble along the way. That’s not changing anytime soon. pic.twitter.com/7voecN2vpj

Weintraub took aim at President Trump in 2019, when she said his "baseless" claims about voter fraud were "damaging to our democracy."
She criticized the president during an appearance on CNN and claimed he was spreading information for which he had no proof.
"I think it is damaging to our democracy," Weintraub told host John Berman, "to spread information like that if there is no proof."
Weintraub insisted there was no evidence of rampant voter fraud in 2016, responding to Trump’s repeated claims to the contrary.
