Donald Trump boasts about damaging footage of him obtained by Congress on January 6

Donald Trump launched a Twitter sermon criticizing Twitter shortly before he arrived on stage at a rally in Ohio.

"Why did Twitter quickly delete this video I shot on January 6th, and why doesn't the unselected committee of political hackers talk about it?" Trump said.

Liz Harrington's spokeswoman, who has never been on Twitter like her boss, shared a video of Trump stating his admiration for "very unique" Capitol troublemakers.

The film opened with Trump's sympathy for violent rebels aimed at overturning Joe Biden's 2020 election victory.

"I know your pain; I know you're hurt. 

1. We had an election stolen from us, "Trump brazenly lied.
2. It was a crushing election
3. and everyone knows that, especially the other side.

Trump told the rebels to go home while praising them, "We love you."

"You're so special," Trump added.
