In his most recent message to America, President Trump is calling on all Americans to help ensure a peaceful transition of power saying he does not condone violence of any kind. The message comes amid threats of violence across the nation on Jan. 20th. President Trump has already enacted a state of emergency in D.C. until the 24th.

Fox News reports:
“In light of reports of more demonstrations, I urge that there must be NO violence, NO lawbreaking and NO vandalism of any kind,” the president said in a statement to Fox News. “That is not what I stand for and it is not what America stands for. I call on ALL Americans to help ease tensions and calm tempers. Thank You.”
“President Trump is asking all Americans to join with him in ensuring that there is an orderly and peaceful transition next week,” a senior Trump adviser told Fox News. “President Trump is also asking that Big Tech companies join with him in this effort.”
The adviser added: “This is a critical time in our nation’s history and surely we can all come together to deliver this important message and not continue to play partisan politics.”
President Trump did not mention impeachment in his message though he has told reporters that he believes the proceedings are the source of a great deal of anger in the country and will only serve to create a deeper divide. The House is currently in session to vote on an article of impeachment to deliver to the Senate.
