Trump's holding a press conference to celebrate the Senate's abdication of its duty.
He starts by pointing out, yet again, that he fired James Comey to stop the investigations into him.

"If this happened to President Obama, a lot of people would have been in jail for a long time already."
You mean like Trump's campaign chairman, deputy campaign chairman, national security adviser, longtime political adviser, and personal lawyer?

"We went through hell unfairly. Did nothing wrong. Did nothing wrong."
@SenatorCollins—do you still think he'll learn from impeachment not to do it again?

@SenatorCollins Trump says the Russia investigation was "all bullshit."
Which part—the one that found his campaign chairman, deputy campaign chairman, national security adviser, personal lawyer, and longtime political adviser guilty?

The one that uncovered a "sweeping and systematic" assault on our elections by Russia, which Trump has tried to undermine by spreading the debunked CrowdStrike conspiracy theory? themoscowproject.org/dispatch/mosco…

Trump keeps pointing to the so-called transcript.
We read it the day it came out.
It's basically a confession: Trump extorted Ukraine.

Nothing to see here, just Trump individually touting his relationships with the jurors who voted to get him off—and them applauding him.
The fix was in the whole time.

Trump still thinks he did nothing wrong.
The only thing he has learned is that Senate Republicans will let him get away with anything.

Trump goes on an extended attack against Mitt Romeny, the only Senate Republican who did his constitutional duty.
Remember when they were all *incensed* that Schiff referenced a news article about how Trump would try to punish anybody who voted against him?

Trump has shown, over and over and over, that he sees nothing wrong with demanding a foreign government announce investigations into his political rivals.
This is what Senate Republicans just endorsed.

Trump, whose children are currently involved in deals with suspected money launderers, mobsters, and corrupt politicians around the world for a company Trump personally owns, complains that his children would never be allowed to make money abroad during his presidency.

Trump's going on and on about Devin Nunes, which reminds us: His staff are pretty clearly implicated in the part of Trump's extortion scheme that involved working with an indicted Ukrainian oligarch with alleged ties to the mob.

Trump's going on and on attacking the people who investigated him.
Just about everything he's saying about them is false. washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/…

Reminder: When the DOJ's inspector general actually looked at how things were investigated in 2016, what they really found was an FBI intent on weaponizing investigations against Trump's *opponent* while shielding him for fear of looking political.

If they hadn't, they might have uncovered much more of the truth about the Trump campaign's collusion with Russia—in real time.

Every time Trump talks about partisanship in impeachment, remember:
The condemnation of his actions was bipartisan.
His "acquittal" was not.
