Donald Trump on Thursday evening condemned his own supporters and called for them to be prosecuted to “the fullest extent of the law,” just days after he chose to pardon “the king of medicare fraud” and release traitor Jonathan Pollard from parole to “make aliyah” in Israel.
“I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol,” Trump said in a statement from the White House released on social media. “Like all Americans, I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness, and mayhem.”
“The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy,” Trump said. “To those who engaged in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country — and to those who broke the law, you will pay.”
