Yes he did two tweets (see below). However he didn’t come out and make A STRONG STATEMENT when the chaos started and try to stop it and denounce the violence that was going on, mention the fact he had ordered national guards, was denied by Sgt of Arms, Pelosi, etc.

He did say this:
Trump did two tweets, one at 1:49 p.m. ET, just as D.C. police were declaring a riot at the Capitol, Trump tweeted out a video of his speech at the Ellipse earlier that day and did not comment on the violence.

2nd 2:24 p.m. ET tweet from Trump that read, in part: “Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done.”
Trump eventually relented to calls from his aides and allies and recorded a video in the Rose Garden later that afternoon to tell his supporters to leave the Capitol. His staff did a draft of which read: “I’m asking for you to leave the Capitol region now and go home in a peaceful way.”

But in the video, Trump went off script, and didn’t say those words. Instead, he repeated his false claim that the election was stolen and saying, “Go home, we love you.”

False claim? That two-word phrase is the real "BIG LIE"!
