'Our historic, patriotic and beautiful movement to Make America Great Again has only just begun,' Trump said. '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.'
'We have so much work ahead of us, and soon we will emerge with a vision for a bright, radiant, and limitless American future,' he added.
The former president sent out a statement within minutes of being acquitted Saturday by the Senate, in a vote that saw seven Republicans join with the Democrats, but 10 short of the total needed to convict Trump of inciting the January 6 insurrection.
In his statement, Trump first thanked his 'dedicated lawyers,' as well as the Republican lawmakers who 'stood proudly for the Constitution we all revere and for the sacred legal principles at the heart of our country.' '
'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,' Trump said.
'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,' he added. '
'This has been yet another phase of the greatest witch hunt in the history of our Country,' Trump said.
'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,' the former president added.
He concluded his note my saying, 'Together there is nothing we cannot accomplish.'
'We remain one People, one family, and one glorious nation under God,' he said. '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,' Trump said.
