President Donald Trump is responding after the U.S. Senate voted 57-43 to acquit him on a single impeachment article of “incitement” Saturday afternoon.
His full statement:
I want to first thank my team of dedicated lawyers and others for their tireless work upholding justice and defending truth.
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 principles at the heart of our country.
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.
This has been yet another phase of the greatest witch hunt in the history of our Country. No president has ever gone through anything like it, and it continues because our opponents cannot forget the almost 75 million people, the highest number ever for a sitting president, who voted for us just a few short months ago.
I also want to convey my gratitude to the millions of decent, hardworking, law-abiding, God-and-Country loving citizens who have bravely supported these important principles in these very difficult and challenging times.
Our historic, patriotic and beautiful movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun. In the months ahead I have much to share with you, and I look forward to continuing our incredible journey together to achieve American greatness for all of our people. There has never been anything like it!
We have so much work ahead of us, and soon we will emerge with a vision for a bright, radiant, and limitless American future.
Together there is nothing we cannot accomplish.
We remain one People, one family, and one glorious nation under God, and it’s our responsibility to preserve this magnificent inheritance for our children and for generations of Americans to come.
May God bless all of you, and may God forever bless the United States of America.
You are RIGHT!

Best president since Reagan... before that G. Washington!

We’re all centrists now. No fair. We want to be far right.
Only briefly.
Probably an artifact of the NSA taking over FR with the hope of moving us to the center...
To people like Mad Maxine anybody to the right of Stalin is far right.

Classy president from Day 1. Impossible act to follow.
Meanwhile Joe Biden looks lost in the Oval Office. “They usually put me at the kiddie table.”
They’ll call you a racist...again.
I hope they find a way to put all of these criminals in prison on left.
**************
Personally I’d like to see all in prison on the left and right.
I don’t condone illegally on either side or from anyone.
I'd love to see that.
Maybe John Robinson? The centering comes and goes.
I love President Trump. It sounds to me like he is going to put together a well polished platform that everyone can get behind, I’m sure in time for the 2022 elections.
Think Contract with America, but on steroids, a full blown political, economic, and cultural framework, resurrecting the founding principles and ideals that most of us hold very dear and were once taught in our schools.
MAGA.
GOD BLESS YOU MR PRESIDENT
You were DULY ELECTED. A MAN for ALL the GOOD PEOPLE
HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH You’ve put up with more crap than anyone.
OMG, I love this man. The greatest president ever. They are all jealous because they cannot hold a candle to him. God Bless President Trump. God bless Melania. God bless his family. God Bless the United States of America, my dear Republic.
Got some machines and inner city election workers to do something about first.>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Pass a federal law, voter ID and in person voting required in all states, except by vaerified absentee ballot.
The reason why?
Its the only way to assure that the federal Constitution is followed.
Count every vote~!
Twas expected, but congrats, President Donald J Trump!
Do you thinnnk Ivanka too liberal, she seems to have a natural bent, but she always seems to bring it home to the populist view. Like you I do not favor her bleeding heart issues. Maybe she would be more hard nosed with the opposition now. Maybe not,
