Trump impeachment lawyer David Schoen says the former president is 'very upbeat' but 'offended' to be tied to the Capitol riot.

After roughly 10 hours of arguments, lead House impeachment manager Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md.,"Mr. President, members of the Senate, first of all, thank you for your close attention and seriousness of purpose that you've demonstrated over the last few days. Thank you, also, for your courtesy to the House managers as we've come over here -- strangers in a strange land -- to make our case before this distinguished body," Raskin said with a light smile.

"Senators, I've talked a lot about common sense in this trial, because I think, I believe that's all you need to arrive at the right answer here," Raskin said."When Tom Payne wrote 'Common Sense,' the pamphlet that launched the American Revolution, he said that common sense really meant two different things."

Of course he does. Trump incited those people, and even told them he’d be there with them. Of course he wasn’t, though. He’s a coward, and wanted them to do for him what he didn’t dare to do himself.

Certifiably insane.

offended after all he lacked doing was storming the capitol himself too

Cuz he's a criminal

Offended! He’s offended?! tRump needs to be jailed!

he is offended, typical toxic trump.......

I We were OFFENDED he was in office 😠LOCK HIS UGLY A** Up with the rest of them ✌️

BS. That demon was digging it!

I’m offended he was tied to the presidency

I’m not sure what else was trump expecting . The absurd

Offended? How about the country being subjected to sedition and insurrection? My word!

Trump offended?! 6 lives were lost because of trump and he is offended ?! Trump should go to prison and if he is acquitted again, vote every Republican out of office who votes to acquit.

Please press criminal charges against Trump.

So, I too am offended by the fact that elected 'lawmakers' who instead of honoring the oath they swore to the constitution, go around swearing allegiance to an arrogant entity who tried to trample it. They don't belong in the Capitol.

WHY Trump’s legacy will be the riot......it happened on his watch!!!!!

You know what? He can shove his words where the sun don't shine.

The family of the police officer who was murdered while protecting the Capitol is offended that is was all because a grown ass man could not accept that he lost!!

I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. SamuelEddy_

rachelvscott Trump sent the invite. 'Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!' -Trump, 19th December 2020

He is tied. They are blind and deaf Retrumplicans to the truth laid out in front of them all.

“We’re going to march down to the capitol & I’ll be with you” are his exact fucking words.

Trump’s very upbeat because he knows his buddies will never vote to convict. Since I believe in karma though, I’m not worried. What goes around, comes back around as the old saying goes.

rachelvscott Charles Manson & John Wayne Gacy were offended when accused so Donald Trump is in perfect company.😒

Yeah, we’re pretty offended by his involvement, too TrumpIsGuilty

AWE!! Who fkn cares‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🤮

Narcissists don't get 'offended', they actually have too much confidence/hope. So obviously he's putting on his neurotypical person mask (acting face/attitude).

He orchestrated the “Riot”. That’s like Ford not wanting to be associated with the Model T!

Yep so upbeat that he went golfing today because he knows he has nothing to fear.

Trump hasn’t been president in over a month... ...but the mainstream media is still talking about him 24/7.

So Trump's lawyer is not only inept, he thinks more lies will help his client? Even if Trump was in the depths of depression, he would instruct the people around him to announce he is 'upbeat'.

Who cares.....

Is he? Is he, indeed?

I am offended that an Orthodox Jew is defending the worst criminal we have ever been subjected to in our country. He has forgotten about WWII. I haven’t. Says the daughter of Holocaust victims.

Baby Trump is physiologically incapable of being “offended”.

Awww, poor baby! 🍼🍼🍼

Fuck his feelings.

Ted Bundy got offended when he was accused too. Sociopathy 101

The guy is has absolutely no remorse but on the contrary is offended that people think he did wrong. GOP you got to be kidding me to suck up to him.

Who the hell cares about his feelings?

The Democrats and their Propaganda Media like ABC are having nightmares for the widely expected Trump's Triumphant come back to the White House and in the Oval Office on Jan. 20th 2025. The Dems and the Fake Media are hopelessly trying that never happens. That will happen!

Tissue boxes ready when this goes no where 😂😂 again

If it were reverse Trump would try to block Senators from voting, by having his supporters block Senators from voting, like he tried with the election certification

Don't make me laugh.

“I love you.” “You’re very special.”

Bullshit!

He did told he supporters to go to the Capitol.

Who gives a shit, guy who will disappear into the dustbin of history in a few days.

He's Offended because his coup failed like his presidency.

What a joke!

Raskin uses searing analogy to counter Trump free speech defense at impeachment trialRep. Jamie Raskin used powerful analogies to counter arguments made by Trump’s legal team that he was within his First Amendment rights to contest the election and hold a Jan. 6 rally contesting the certification of his loss to Joe Biden. Old argument. He never once yelled fire or promoted violence. He always promotes peace , we can’t at the same for Maxine Waters.
