President Donald Trump on Wednesday called on all Americans to not engage in any violent demonstrations, vandalism, or lawbreaking ahead of the Jan. 20 inauguration.
“In light of reports of more demonstrations, I urge that there must be NO violence, NO lawbreaking, and NO vandalism of any kind,” Trump said. “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.”
The Epoch Times reached out to the White House for comment. Trump’s statement will go out as an email from the White House press office and the White House will post the statement through the president’s social media accounts. The report also cited an advisor as saying that the president wants Big Tech companies to assist in disseminating his message of non-violence.
It came after the president was suspended from Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, and other tech platforms.
Other Republicans and Trump surrogates have called for no violence following the U.S. Capitol breach.
Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel stated Wednesday that “violence has no place in our politics. Period.”

I got the email.
I found it very offensive as well as very insulting.
Instead of saying President did not incite, President supports peaceful transition, etc. the email asks me not to be an anarchist? Not to go to State Capitol!?!?
Just got off phone with RNC—gave them an earful and asked to be removed from mailing list...
Next will be to change voter affiliation.
And declassify everything and personally make copies.
And go ahead and announce and plan the biggest Trump Rally ever on Jan 20th. I don't care where it is over a million will attend.
I guess I’m not one of the cool kids.
No call.
No text.
Could be for some at least. People forget President Trump had a TV show for 10 years.
What number did you call. I think it would be good to do a vanity thread with the number and email so everyone can tell them it's over for the GOP. No more votes or money ever.
“It’s over, folks.” Did the President provide some special information to you?
Yes, he deserves rest, but he is President until some time on 1/20—after that he can rest if he wants...But knowing his work ethic, I am sure he will keep trying to MAGA one way or another.
Not sure what you mean “let the rest of us take it from here,” but you don’t speak for me...I am waiting to hear from my President of his future plans.
Praying for the Country, the President, and his family.
More like common sense.
For example, Trump is a real estate developer. He expanded Gitmo, 200 million, to sit empty? Sure.
Or that wall, he touts it, big accomplishment, it isn’t all done yet, but did for nothing as the left would tear it down? Sure.
He writes an EO in 2018 about foreign involvement in our elections, but won’t act on it and did it for nothing because Trump does so much for nothing.
I could go on but I think I made my point.
The military backs Trump and still does. Who do you think is protecting him and his family right now?
The show is still going. The Storm is here.
He
Enemies foreign and domestic can include the President in my judgement
If you think there will ever be a fair election after what we’ve seen, then who the heck of the two of us believes in “false hope”? Laughable nonsense the idea that we can win at the ballot box.
Hell, in 2 yrs you have no idea how deep down into tyranny/communism these fokkers intend. We don’t even know the full extent of what they’ve been up to for the last 30 years, but that which I can see and now hear from them, is alarming at best.
Good luck with that voting Jr...
I didn’t get any texts either.
They say there is chatter on Facebook, and I may be wrong, but I don’t know anyone stupid enough to let themselves get herded into doing something that would only benefit the most fascist of the Dems. There would have to be a WHOLE lot of alcohol involved, and even then.
I did get the RNC email. Not the POTUS text messages though.
Honestly, I called the general number and I think after roaming around the voicemail maze I got connected with a person...I think it was constituent services...but I was so upset, really can’t recall...I recommend someone re-call and document the numbers...I need to rest—my BP is up there...
Can email the RNC too probably.
Here was the letter:

Dear ____________________________
What I’m about to tell you is of the utmost importance.
Violence has no place in our politics. Period. I wholly condemned last week’s senseless acts of violence, and I strongly reiterate the calls to remain peaceful in the weeks ahead.
Those who partook in the assault on our nation’s Capitol and those who continue to threaten violence should be found, held accountable, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Let me be clear: Anyone who has malicious intent is not welcome in Washington, D.C. or in any other State Capitol Building.
The peaceful transition of power is one of our nation’s founding principles and is necessary for our country to move forward. Now is the time to come together as one nation, united in the peaceful pursuit of our common democratic purpose.
Our Founding Fathers established a Nation of laws, not a Nation of anarchy. And, the Republican Party is the Party of individual freedom, liberty, entrepreneurship, innovation, and the American Dream, not the hateful violence we witnessed last week.
God bless you and God bless the United States of America.
Thank you,

Post of the day.
WOW incredible video— had the guts to speak out
I watched it four times. What balls
..... It’s a shame the president wasn’t able to declassify and release all of the Russia Collusion and Corruption Documents
The party hasn’t started yet but it will. Time to have a little faith in Donald Trump.
What email????
