| 1:40.2 | Okay. So over the weekend on Saturday, President Trump became the first president ever to go |
| 1:45.3 | two for two for two in impeachment acquittal. So he's been impeached twice. It happened basically |
| 1:50.1 | within the space of a year. And he was acquitted twice by the Senate. This time there were more |
| 1:55.0 | votes to impeach him or convict him in the Senate than there were last time around. Last |
| 1:58.5 | time it was a straight party vote with only Mitt Romney breaking ranks. This time there were seven Republicans breaking ranks, according to ABC News, exactly a month and a week after insurrectionists incited a riot at the Capitol on January 6th.

| 2:50.1 | in November that they attempted to essentially lump in all of those people with the capital rioters. I've been saying this since the day it happened. It was pretty obvious that the left wing and media agenda here was to lump everybody in together with the people who committed actual criminal and evil acts on January 6th. President Trump said, our historic patriotic, beautiful movement to make America |
| 3:08.2 | great again has only just begun. In the months ahead, I have much to share with you. I look forward |
| 3:11.7 | to continuing our incredible journey together to achieve American greatness for all of our people. |
