if he was enticed to do this by his minions agreeing not to invoke the 25th if he did the video. He wants to sound like he is sane.

Never been on it, never will. Same for twitter.

Of course there are those here who claim Facebook is the miracle that keeps them in touch with all their loved ones. I think people forgot that there were other ways to do that before the internet.

At least he conceded and told his stormtroopers it is over. Something I guess. Course they will be facing charges and going to jail while he flies off to wherever.

Those second impeachment threats have got to him.

He's reading something someone else wrote, probably Cippilone or whatever his name is.

He's lying, of course. "Immediately ordered the National Guard"?

"our incredible journey is only just beginning."

Did someone hold him at gunpoint to read this? I am exaggerating, but he must be under threat of 25th, impeachment, etc. so he reads something halfway civil.

Gotta say, that was the most coherent speech I have ever seen Trump give as pResident. I guess that's the "That's All, Folks" concession speech?

From blame, the 25th, impeachment. It was obviously written for him, but he did say there would be a transition of power and condemned the violence. Of course he lied several times, first off about calling out the NG. He didn't repeat the lies about the election. I think somebody like Chris Christie or McConnell got to him and told him he better do something like this or else.

and said “Listen here, you little shrimp, in about ten minutes, you’re gonna go on the tube, and here’s what you’re gonna say (thrusts script forward) don’t deviate from it, don’t ad lib, no matter how clever you feel, and here’s what’s going to happen if you don’t.......”

Never mind that you can see him gritting his teeth through the entire remarks. Anyone wonder why he never won shit for his acting? Nah!

They read him the riot act to get that out of him. I wonder exactly what was held under his nose as incentive.

Who wrote that for him, while nice, not TRUE at all and does not excuse him from his role yesterday.

Second, you know he doesn't really feel that way this is a CYA

What a dirty piece of shit to come out now and say that.

Finally his cult won't believe a word of that, except where he called them wonderful, I almost gagged saying that
