breakfast in washington traditionally it's a nonpartisan gathering designed to promote unity and reconciliation the day after his then acquittal president trump was a no mood for forgiveness. as everybody knows my family our great country and your president have been put through a terrible ordeal. by some very dishonest and corrupt people. they have done everything possible to destroy us and by so doing very badly hurt our nation a clear swipe at democratic leader nancy pelosi who were seated just down the table from trump fortitude and strength for months she had been leading the charge to remove him from office later in the day palosi fired back.

and at play hard for him because he's so off the track of our constitution our values at country the air our children praise the water they drink and the rest he really needs our prayers but trump was still hoping to get the last word in a televised address at the white house the president targeted the u.s. house speaker once more nancy pelosi is a horrible person. and she wanted to impeach a long time ago when she said i prefer the president i pray for the president she may pray but she prays for the opposite but i doubt she prays at all and these are vicious people least did it likely won't be the president's last salvo in his ongoing feud with the most powerful woman in washington. the impeachment may be in the rearview mirror but today's hostilities signaled more bitter division lies ahead. for more on donald trump's post impeachment speech on what this could mean

for the election coming up let's cross to g.w. correspondent all of a salad in washington hi there all of trump's speech felt like a cross between a triumphant lap of on him repeating that he's a victim and also a warning of sorts how is what he's said being interpreted over there. well jared is fancy law firm for what he is really but if you talk to critics they would rather interpret this as a very bizarre and unpresidential appearance probably one of the most bizarre appearances he's had in a long time and he's also had this very vindictive tone there at the speech you just showed an excerpt in this report that was very telling because it could give you a look into his world view where you divide people into bad and evil who oppose him versus those who support him adam schiff for instance the 3 leader at leading manager in the impeachment trial and mitt romney the senator who called victim were

called vicious he also called in to close to the speaker of the house a horrible person and what's really interesting here also and what stands out if you if you compare his response to the one of bill clinton after his impeachment trial where he apologized to the american people essentially saying that he was profoundly sorie to trigger all that and well president trump did not. write an extraordinary speech all of it let's look a little bit further what implications does the impeachment and the acquittal have on the upcoming election you know can trump be trusted for example to avoid the kinds of activities that got him under investigation in the 1st place. what we learned from that speech is a trump pretty much things that he did everything right and the democrats are the evil and that added to it certainly set the tone for the complain that we're going to see in the next months with regards to his conduct that is very unlikely to change and that's also one of the reasons why the democrats decided to impeach him

in the 1st place because trump in his presidency follows a certain pattern of totalitarian interpretation of the presidential office if you will also remember the report of special counsel robert mahler and all the unflattering details he unveiled there so we might see some of the coming up again plus of course a very divisive campaign all of it would contact about the impeachment and the press is talking about the democratic party that had lost the impeachment process and they still have to digest the fiasco surrounding the caucus results in iowa what type of shape is the party in they're certainly not in their best moment right now jarrett well the acquittal was clear it was clear that president trump will be acquitted after this trial so the democrats were never the less hoping for a shift in the public momentum there that never came and they were trying to make the case here that the republicans were hiding the truth when they did not allow

witnesses and evidence so now they have to decide how they want to move on if they want to subpoena candidates and testify and here additional tests mooney's like the one of john bolton outside the framework of impeachment or can return to the traditional election topics correspondent all of a sonnet in washington thank you. now to some of the other stories making news around the world in iowa where the democratic party has declared the winner of the state's caucuses monday's contest was the 1st to choose the democratic candidate to run against president donald trump in november's election the vote was hit by technical problems and delays. naturally defeated senator bernie sanders. a palestinian man who opened fire on israeli security forces in jerusalem has been shot dead. to me and were killed in clashes with israeli forces in the west bank as

solution the government should at least deal with waste removal when it rains here there are floods that sometimes drag away our children our houses are ruined too we have many problems here. but we want the new president. to think about us. things are very bad for us here our country is rich but we don't see any of it. people have a lot of money but we are suffering here. joe wilder and so took office 2 years ago his predecessor had been in power for 38 years lorenzo's ernest attempts at confronting the rampant corruption have surprised many here he's even confronted former party allies. and the profile it's precisely because i have seen these high levels of corruption. and because i think it must be stopped. that

until a chord scale established the scale of the corruption in the country and punish the perpetrators. so has the era of corrupt elites in angola past residents of the capital under the slums have their doubts they want to see concrete results . where the hills outside kabul were once used by the taliban to pound the afghan capital with rockets and mortars but today the hindu kush mountain range is home to a group of enthusiastic young snowboarders they don't have a ski lift and get no official help but the founders of the afghan snowboarding federation have got big plans for this force. snowboarding seems an unlikely leisure pursuit in the hills outside the afghan capital but at 1800 meters above sea level kabul is one of the highest capital cities in the world these local
