I'm going to type it how it would be correct first.

"Ralph Waldo Emerson seemed to foresee the lesson the Senate Impeachment Trial of President Trump. 'When you strike at the King,' Emerson famously said, 'you must kill him.' Mr. Trump's foes struck at him but did not take him down. A triumphant Mr. Trump emerges from the biggest test of his presidency emboldened, ready to claim exoneration, and take his case of grievance, persecution and resentment to the campaign trail," Peter Baker @nytimes. The Greatest Witch Hunt in American History!

 

  1. Beginning double quote is correct b/c POTUS is quoting Peter Baker.

  2. Beginning single quote at When is correct because Baker is quoting Emerson.

  3. there should be a close single quote after King,' because Baker is attributing that phrase to Emerson.

  4. Beginning double quote at "you must is incorrect - should be single quote because Baker is resuming his quote from Emerson.

  5. Ending single quote after him' is correct b/c it is the end of the Emerson quote.

  6. Missing space between Mr. and Trump

  7. 5 periods instead of the standard 3 as ellipses at end of tweet; same with beginning of 2nd tweet.

  8. Double quotes after trail." is correct because it ends the quote of Peter Baker's NY Times piece.
