I'd like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all America I was outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem and 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 honor. The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy.
To those who engaged in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country and those who broke the law, you will pay.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 8, 2021We have just been through an intense election and emotions are high. But now tempers must be cool 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 20. 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 people a menacing pandemic has upended the lives of our citizens. Isolated millions of damage our economy and claimed countless lives.
Defeating this pandemic and rebuilding the greatest economy will require all of us working together. It will require a renewed emphasis on the Civic values and patriotism, faith, charity, community and family.
We must revitalize the sacred bonds of love and loyalty that binds us together as one national family, to the citizens of our country serving as you 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.
