US President Donald Trump labels impeachment a 'terrible ordeal'

President Donald Trump launched a post-impeachment victory lap Thursday, brandishing a newspaper with the giant headline"ACQUITTED" on television, ahead of a White House address on his"terrible ordeal."

But from the moment he entered to the strains of"Hail to the Chief," Mr Trump made his feelings clear by holding up a copy of USA Today with the banner headline reporting his victory - with a broad grin on his face. Mr Trump noted that he would be giving a statement at the White House later and said he'd discuss his determination that what happened during the impeachment cannot be allowed to"go on."

Right before Mr Trump spoke, Harvard professor Arthur Patterson called on the audience to address the"contempt and polarisation that is tearing our societies apart."Donald Trump was impeached in the Democratic-led House last December over his attempts to push Ukraine into opening what would have been a politically damaging corruption probe into election rival Joe Biden.

Senator Romney, a longtime Trump foe, risked White House wrath to vote alongside Democrats on the first count, saying Mr Trump was"guilty of an appalling abuse of public trust."Donald Trump's impeachment and trial will leave a permanent stain on his record, as it did for the only two presidents to have encountered the same fate, Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Bill Clinton in 1998.

The only one that is 'evil' and 'corrupt' is DONALD J. TRUMP.
