BREAKING: Trump Releases Statement Following Impeachment Acquittal
GP ^ | February 13, 2021 | Cassandra Fairbanks

Posted on 02/13/2021 1:21:18 PM PST by White Lives Matter

Former President Donald Trump has released a statement following his acquittal on an article of impeachment for “incitement of insurrection.”

Trump was found not guilty on Saturday.

“I want to first thank my team of dedicated lawyers and others for their tireless work upholding justice and defending truth,” the statement began. “My deepest thanks as well to all of the United States Senators and Members of Congress who stood proudly for the Constitution we all revere and for the sacred legal principals at the heart of our country.”

The statement continued on to say that “our cherished Constitutional Republic was founded on the impartial rule of law, the indispensable safeguard for our liberties, our rights and our freedoms.”

“It is a sad commentary on our times that one political party in America is given a free pass to denigrate the rule of law, defame law enforcement, cheer mobs, excuse rioters, and transform justice into a tool of political vengeance, and persecute, blacklist, cancel and suppress all people and viewpoints with whom or which they disagree. I always have, and always will, be a champion for the unwavering rule of law, the heroes of law enforcement, and the right of Americans to peacefully and honorably debate the issues of the day without malice and without hate.”

“President Trump is still liable for everything he did while he’s in office. He didn’t get away with anything yet.”

I don't even know what to say to that.

Reminds me of a scene from Animal House...

Bluto is rallying the Delta troops after they all were kicked out of school...

“I’m not gonna take this...

Wormer, He’s a d**d man...
Marmalard, d**d...
Neidermeyer...

And, Otter jumps in...”d**d...

I’m projecting this only politically, of course (assuming NSA is reading)...

However, these corrupt political traitors must be dealt with politically by the voters in their respective states...

When the communists get through digesting this statement, we'll be seeing a third impeachment be started, once again for "incitement"...

This statement will be exhibit number one...
At least 10 more GOP POS wimps will added to the "for conviction" list...

"Dirty Dick" Burr is up for re-election in 2022.

We need to retire "Dirty Dick" and Loser Lisa in the next cycle.

"Magic Underpants" Milt goes down in 2024.

In a just world, no Democrat will ever serve concurrently with a Republican-controlled House and escape impeachment.

Yes, I know I’m pipe-dreaming.

and FR will now attack the republicans, and pretend like the democrats don’t exist.

Well the GOP pretends like their base doesn't exist so I'd say it is a push.

senators sharron angle, christine odonnell, richard mourdock, todd akin, and roy moore agree.

running better candidates in the primaries is only smart if you don’t pick losers. so, don’t pick losers.

Madness is supporting a political party that disenfranchises its own voters. Calling out the Quisling GOP is the start of holding them accountable.

We both know a third party stands no chance with the entrenched two party system we have currently, but we have so many establishment types in the GOP that it’s going to be a tough job to dislodge them.

Lin Wood was the straw that broke the camel’s back, so to speak.

We can’t vote them out just yet but we can make their lives miserable like they did to Trump. We go after their lobbiests.

we do. but if you read the jihadists on FR, I think we’re actually up to 5 or 6 parties.

Great to read such encouraging words from my President on this glorious day.

He took the political world by surprise in 2016.

Had his rightful reelection stolen from him in 2020.

And I cannot wait to behold his revenge/comeback campaign leading to victory in 2024 when all of his/our enemies will indeed be reaping the whirlwind of his wrath!!!

That would be ideal. Sue Congress and the media for libleing millions of innocent American citizens, calling us terrorists and not allowing us our day in court. They disenfranchised us. The entire Congress is a corrupt enterprise through which they enrich themselves through our tax dollar’s. Look into the finances of each and every one... starting with Mitch.
