Trump unleashes fury at impeachment enemies at prayer event
Source: AP
WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump unleashed his fury against those who tried to remove him from office at a prayer breakfast Thursday, a day after his acquittal by the Senate in his impeachment trial.
Speaking from a stage where he was joined by congressional leaders, including Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who led the impeachment charge against him, Trump shattered the usual veneer of bipartisanship at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington.
As everybody knows, my family, our great country and your president have been put through a terrible ordeal by some very dishonest and corrupt people, Trump said at the annual event. His airing of grievances came hours before he was to deliver a formal response to the impeachment vote at the White House.
They have done everything possible to destroy us and by so doing very badly hurt our nation, said Trump, who triumphantly held up copies of two newspapers with banner ACQUITTED headlines as he took the stage.

and if he gets in a second time (help us all), the Dems will most certainly have back the senate and we can actually impeach him and kick his ass in jail.

Because that's what it is and we need to take a stand against everything he has to say heretofore and beyond. No more consent to propaganda! Starve the beast!

"Our family." "My family."
We're now being asked to equate not just Trump with the state, but his *family.* This is endgame stuff.
