BREAKING NEWS: Donald Trump hints at a comeback as he revels in acquittal calling impeachment a ‘witch hunt’ and saying: ‘Our historic, patriotic and beautiful movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun’

  • Former President Donald Trump hinted at a comeback as he cheered on being acquitted, for a second time, in an impeachment trial before the U.S. Senate 
  • ‘Our historic, patriotic and beautiful movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun,’ Trump said a statement sent out minutes after the vote 
  • The Senate was 10 Republican votes shy of convicting Trump of inciting the insurrection on January 6  

Former President Donald Trump hinted at a comeback as he cheered on being acquitted, for a second time, in an impeachment trial before the U.S. Senate.  

‘Our historic, patriotic and beautiful movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun,’ Trump said. ‘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.’

The former president sent out a statement within minutes of being acquitted Saturday by the Senate, in a vote that saw seven Republicans join with the Democrats, but 10 short of the total needed to convict Trump of inciting the January 6 insurrection.  

Former President Donald Trump sent out a statement directly after the Senate voted Saturday to acquit, hinting at a political comeback  

In his statement, Trump first thanked his ‘dedicated lawyers,’ as well as the Republican lawmakers who ‘stood proudly for the Constitution we all revere and for the sacred legal principles at the heart of our country.’  

He then savaged the Democrats – and doubled down on his support for blue lives matter, despite the fact that law enforcement officers were killed by the violent MAGA mob. 

‘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,’ Trump said. 

‘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,’ he added.   

He also used one of his favorite terms when explaining how he saw this second impeachment trial.  

‘This has been yet another phase of the greatest witch hunt in the history of our Country,’ Trump said. 

‘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,’ he added.  

President Joe Biden won the election with more than 81 million votes.   

‘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,’ the former president added. 

He concluded his note my saying, ‘Together there is nothing we cannot accomplish.’

And he repeated a well-known line from his campaign stump speeches.  

‘We remain one People, one family, and one glorious nation under God,’ he said. ‘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,’ Trump said. 

FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’S STATEMENT AFTER BEING ACQUITTED BY THE SENATE

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.
