The end of Trump's presidency has been overshadowed by the dark cloud of, which threatened the lives of Pence and members of Congress. Five people were killed in the violence that broke out when a massive crowd of the president's supporters breached the building while a joint session of Congress was certifying Biden's win.
"All Americans were horrified by the assault on our Capitol. Political violence is an attack on everything we cherish as Americans. It can never be tolerated. Now more than ever, we must unify around our shared values and rise above the partisan rancor and forge our common destiny,"Trump also spent a fair bit of his address rounding up what he views as the administration's top accomplishments in office, and left the door open for the future.
"As I prepare to hand power over to a new administration at noon on Wednesday, I want you to know that the movement we started is only just beginning. There's never been anything like it," Trump said. He added: "I go from this majestic place with a loyal and joyful heart, an optimistic spirit, and a supreme confidence that for our country and for our children, the best is yet to come."Start your mornings with 10 Things in Politics You Need to Know Today.

He has 25k national guardsmen outside his front door he can't keep up the big lie anymore. It's a wrap.
His refusal to concede cements his legacy. He will go down as the most damaging President America has even had to put up with. He is truly not interested in healing and his remarks continue to be divisive. A sad speech. It was a missed opportunity.
Hit the road Jack!
Sad loser. Bad loser.
It’s too late for a grossly flawed President to read a speech written by someone trying to rewrite the narrative and pretty-up the ugliness and divisiveness of the past four chaotic years in the USA’s history. We must ensure nothing like this ever happens again. Never ever.
.eh..Nobody gives a sh!t anymore whether he does or doesn't. He can just fade away with all his p*ssy little juvenile, narcissist games.
africaupdates Too desperate for a Trump Endorsement!
What is your problem? He wished the new administration well. He emphasized that political violence is never the answer.
Why will do you expect him to concede when he didn't lose ?
He shouldn’t concede!
Asshole to the end.
Still sad and still delusional.
