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.”

Ping me if you start a thread.
Thx
Okay I’ll behave until January 20
I got both, plus a message from Telegeam.
What email????
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is email I received from NRC—Ronna McDaniels. No mention of fact that Trump was not supporting “storming” capitol nor that Trump supporters are patriotic Americans who don’t support violence. To the contrary, she is imploring me to be peaceful...That she felt compelled to admonish me to not be malicious as if I would choose violence...I found it insulting and outrageous!

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,

OK, this is the first time I saw the email. I don’t think it says not to go to the state capitols.

Completely different meanings. note “malicious intent” in the email.
Look dingdongdaddy, You are welcome to your opinion (not sure why you are so invested since you did not get the email).
I have my opinion. They sent it to me and I was replying to others and you asked...
I believe they would not have sent this unless they think that I am capable of “malicious intent” ... in DC or State Capitols...And as I said, as a (former as of today) member of RNC, I find this insulting and outrageous.
I have sent the email to friends and family who agree with my interpretation.
Think what you will...
Impeach 46
I always thought freedom, if it ended in America would end with a bang. That we would go down fighting. I never knew that it would end with a whimper.
“ The show is still going. The Storm is here.”
Put on the Shield of God. This fight is not for the weak. Time for prayer for our military.
Yes! With you brother!
One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that Trump doesn’t like speaking from a teleprompter. However there are times when he has to, and when he agrees with what he has to say then he adlibs and adds his own comments and emphasis along with what they have written for him. When he doesn’t agree he reads it word for word without emotion. I don’t think he wanted to give this address so we’ll see what happens over the next six days.
