February 12, 2021The impeachment against Donald Trurmp "is clearly unconstitutional" and must be considered as "an act of political revenge that will further divide our nation".
In this way the defense of the former president of the United States has defined the ongoing trial in the Senate activated against Trump for alleged wrongdoing committed in the exercise of his public functions during his presidential term.
In particular, the former President Trump is accused of having instigated the insurrection on Capitol Hill last January 6.
During the Senate trial, now on its fourth day, Donald Trump's attorneys said that his words to the supporters who attacked the Capitol were just common political rhetoric showing a video montage in which many Senate Democrats use word "fight" in various political speeches.
According to the defense, it is the same word used by Trump, when he urged the crowd to "fight like furies" against the alleged electoral fraud linked to his defeat.
The long video shows Vice President Kamala Harris, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer, and countless other Democrats using the word "fight" without context.
With the presentation of Donald Trump's defense arguments closed, the debate will start.
The final grade is expected on Saturday.
The former White House tenant is the only one in history to have been subjected to two impeachments.
President Joe Biden, speaking to reporters, said: "'I am looking forward to seeing what my Republican friends will do in the impeachment process."
