When President Trump’s Twitter was restored he issued a video statement where he strongly condemned the Capitol Hill attackers while calling for peace.

President Trump also revealed his future plans.

According to Fox News:

“Like all Americans, I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem,” Trump said, adding that he had “immediately” deployed the National Guard.

…

“Emotions are high now, but tempers must be cooled and calm restored,” the president continued. “We must get on with the business of America. My campaign rigorously pursued every legal avenue to contest the election results. My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote.”

“My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth, orderly and seamless transition,” Trump said, acknowledging that “a new administration” would be inaugurated Jan. 20. “This moment now calls for healing and reconciliation.”

…

“To the citizens of our country, serving as your president has been the honor of a lifetime,” he continued. “To my incredible supporters I know you are disappointed … our incredible journey is only just beginning.”

President Trump stopped short of announcing his candidacy for 2024, but many hope that he will. Reports out Friday indicate that Democrats want to start impeachment proceedings next week, likely in an attempt to prohibit him from running again.
