President Donald Trump released a video Thursday night condemning the people who broke into the Capitol this week. His focus is now on a smooth transition of power. President-elect Joe Biden is set to be inaugurated on January 20.
TRANSCRIPT:
I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all Americans, I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness, and mayhem. I immediately deployed the national guard and federal law enforcement to secure the building and expel the intruders. America is and must always be a nation of law and order. The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy.
To those who engage in acts of violence and destruction: you do not represent our country. And to those who broke the law: you will pay.
We have just been through an intense election and emotions are high. But now tempers must be cooled and calm restored. We must get on with the business of America. My campaign vigorously pursued every legal avenue to contest the election results. My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote.
In so doing, I was fighting to defend American democracy. I continue to strongly believe that we must reform our election laws to verify the identity and eligibility of all voters and to ensure faith and confidence in all future elections. Now Congress has certified the results. A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20th. My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly, and seamless transition of power.
This moment calls for healing and reconciliation. 2020 has been a challenging time for our people. A menacing pandemic has upended the lives of our citizens, isolated millions in their homes, damaged our economy and claimed countless lives. Defeating this pandemic and rebuilding the greatest economy on earth will require all of us working together.
It will require a renewed emphasis on the civic values of patriotism, faith, charity, community, and family. We must revitalize the sacred bonds of love and loyalty that bind us together as one national family.
To the citizens of our country, serving as your President has been the honor of my lifetime. And to all of my wonderful supporters, I know you are disappointed but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning.
Thank you, God bless you, and God bless America.
There is a autentic foto circulating the net, of Pelosis son in law standing with a “rioter” in front of the Capitol.
Were this riots an inside job planed by Democrats (coud be don by Antifa or other people )?
All to distract the attention from the election irregularities?
Because this is what happened
After this riots there was no more debate about the election irregularities (highly possible rigged election) and the Biden election was legalised in a big hurry!
“This moment calls for healing and reconciliation,” sorry but I’m getting tired of being called a bigot by every liberal because I’m white. I’m tired of being told that all the work I put into a career that lasted for 40 years was only allowed because I’m white. I’m tired of being told I have to like a minority even if him or her is a horses butt. In other words if they want healing and reconciliation, it will have to start with them.
