Outgoing President Donald Trump has condemned the American people for breaking into the Capitol building, saying he is “outraged by the violence” he has seen. He addressed the people who broke into Capitol Hill and said, “To all those who have committed acts of violence and destruction – you do not represent America. To all who have broken the law – you will pay.”
“America is, and must always be, a nation of law and order,” Trump added. “The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol defiled the seat of American democracy.”
According to Trump, “We’ve had intense elections, and the emotions are great. We need to calm the spirits and move forward.” However, he noted that he and his people would continue to act in any legal way “to challenge the results, and called for election security reform.” My only goal is to ensure the credibility of the results. “This is how I fight to defend American democracy,” he said.
After saying these things, Trump first acknowledged at the end of his rule: “Congress has approved the results. A new administration will be sworn in on January 20. My focus right now will be on a smooth and orderly transfer of power. This is a moment we must move to healing and reconciliation. 2020 was challenging for us. To defeat the plague and rebuild the world’s largest economy, we must work together. “
“Being your president has been the honor of my life,” Trump concluded. “And to all my amazing supporters – I know you are disappointed, but I want you to know that our amazing journey has just begun.”
