“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.”
~~President Donald John Trump
