President Trump’s attorney Michael van der Veen dispelled mainstream media’s false claims about his acquittal. He refuted an attempt by a CBS reporter to downplay the significance of Democrat impeachment managers selectively editing evidence for the Senate trial.
“The media has to start telling the right story in this country…the media is trying to divide this country,” stated the attorney. “You are bloodthirsty for ratings!”
Van der Veen noted, Democrats committed massive wrongdoing during the sham impeachment and mainstream media is covering that up.
“The House Managers are not trying a case. They’re telling a political fable.”

“I can’t believe that you would ask me a question indicating that it’s alright just to doctor a little bit of evidence,” he continued. “There’s more stuff that we uncovered that they doctored to be frank with you and perhaps that will come out one day, but we won this case.”
The attorney added, the conduct of Democrat impeachment managers was inexcusable and the media must stop siding with them.
