This week, President Donald Trump was acquitted of the charges against him in his Senate impeachment trial, and now the Commander-in-Chief is holding a press conference about the situation. Trump was accused of using his position as U.S. president to try and coerce a foreign power into investigating the family of a political rival, but after no new evidence was allowed and no witnesses were allowed to testify, the Senate majority voted to acquit him of the charges. Now, he is speaking out about the trial and its outcome to members of the press.

This is the most insane I have ever seen Trump and I have seen him sh*t himself on a soundstage on ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ and make a teenage Ivanka give him a lapdance on ‘Miss Teen USA’ @realDonaldTrump

I spoke to Paula White, the president’s faith adviser, this week. I asked her if she really believes that Donald Trump is a Christian (she does) and how anyone is supposed to believe that he is. She told me that we can never judge or question another person’s faith. https://t.co/gmWdKSQIO5

Why is @CNN and other media outlets even airing @realDonaldTrump this performance…this isn’t a new conference it’s a campaign speech. Please give “real” presidential candidates the same time. https://t.co/ltIHBZmPnC

Reminder as you’re listening to this: 52 Republican senators not only voted to acquit Donald Trump, but refused even to hear witnesses from his own administration testify as to what he had done….

.@realDonaldTrump never said what “corruption” got cleaned up on Sept. 11, the day he released Ukraine’s aid.
— Heidi Przybyla (@HeidiNBC) February 6, 2020
His supporters, including Zeldin, couldn’t answer either.
The “reforms” they cite occurred in May and July and were baked into the Pentagon’s previous authorization.
What are we watching?? Someone tell me we are not watching Donald Trump, the so-called President of the United States, having an Adderall fueled unhinged psychotic rant on live TV. 😳 #TrumpSpeech

Donald Trump’s day so far:
— Palmer Report (@PalmerReport) February 6, 2020
– Spends National Prayer Breakfast ranting about Romney and Pelosi
– Uses White House press conference to yell “bullshit”
– Makes up word “apprenti”
– This guy isn’t emboldened, he’s falling to pieces
– Trump is going to prison
– It’s still only 1pm
Donald Trump: “If this would’ve happened to Obama there’d be a lot of people in jail right now.”
— Ryan Knight 🏳️🌈 🗽 (@ProudResister) February 6, 2020
1) This would’ve never happened to Obama because he would’ve never broke the law or abused his power.
2) There are a lot of people in jail right now: Trump’s former campaign aides.
