TRUMP statement: "In light of reports of more demonstrations, I urge that there must be NO violence, NO lawbreaking and NO vandalism of any kind. 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."

Now who's gonna tell Trump they put this out on his behalf?

[Thomas Hurt]

1. Still won't say there was no voter fraud and he lost, just don't do anything bad.

[soothsayer]

2. "Look, he's learned his lesson, like a kid touching a hot stove"

Let’s not impeach. He’s reformed!

[magicarpet]

23. He has finally officially made the pivot ..

... to being presi-dunce-ial.

He now deserves the four more years he constantly craves. Without question now,... we should give him his one more term in the Oval.

[soothsayer]

25. A mulligan! A do-over!

So he can institute lifetime presidential terms, which they’d give him, and lifetime immunity, and then they’d act all surprised when he goes full on dictator.

[Roland99]

24. HA! Exactly! My response.....

ha....

1) he didn't write it
2) sounds like a third-grader promising not to throw paper wads at the girl next to him
3) doesn't absolve him of his crimes

[Crunchy Frog]

30. He didn't write it. Probably doesn't even know about it.

I'm guessing that he's had some pretty stringent limits placed on him in return for not being 25th'd.

[Nevilledog]

37. Agreed

3. ALL Americans cannot ease or calm. ALL Americans cannot erase you and Magat crimes. nt

[Freedomofspeech]

4. Why didn't he just tell them to stay home?

Because he wants bloodshed in his name.

[ResistantAmerican17]

5. Somebody found out they are going to be sued to hell when they lose the protection of the

Office they have defiled

[Mme. Defarge]

6. Witness tampering during his second impeachment debate?

[LisaL]

7. Is there anyone who thinks Trump wrote that?

NT

[Nevilledog]

12. I can't imagine anyone believing that

[Siwsan]

13. I doubt he even knows it's been released

He's too busy frothing at the mouth.

[stillcool]

26. no way.

[lindysalsagal]

8. Admit you lied.

[BlueIdaho]

9. Does he really think this will absolve him of guilt

When this shit happens again? Not bloody likely.

[Budi]

10. Absolving himself of further blame while watching the melee play out on the TV.

Who wrote that anyway?

Thank god he can't tweet!

[Nevilledog]

17. Wonder how he reacts when he hears on FOX that someone made up this statement?

[Budi]

28. Haaahaa.. "PENCE!!!"

[calguy]

11. They forgot the *wink wink*

[Eid Ma Clack Shaw]

14. Jared or Vanky distracted him with a hamburger and did it

Not because they’re good people or have a conscience or whatever, but because they think she’ll be a credible candidate for the Presidency in 2028.

15. I love this comment:

"if he could tweet"

[dalton99a]

16. Go fuck yourself, asshole. Thank you.

[Askov_Finlyson]

18. Will not play well.

Too late, unfortunately. Frankenstein's monster is already loose. The MAGAts will turn on tRump for selling them out in 5...4...3...2...

[gratuitous]

19. There was a cartoon many years ago

National Lampoon, maybe? Anyway, guy standing in seedy motel room looking out upper story window. On the walls behind him are several bullet holes, a bag of money strewn over the unmade bed. He's tossing something out the window and the caption is "Here's twenty bucks that says let's forget the whole thing, Officer."

The guy in the cartoon is about three levels above Needy Amin on the scale of humanity.

[Doreen]

20. One of these idiots claimed donny said he would yield to a peaceful

transfer. Where is the statement he said that? I have not seen or heard that.

[Totally Tunsie]

22. He has stated agreement to an ORDERLY transition,

but I've never heard him use the word "peaceful".

https://www.politico.com/news/2021/01/07/trump-transition-of-power-455721

President Donald Trump early Thursday morning acknowledged for the first time he will leave office and agreed to an orderly transition of power, bringing an end to an unprecedented and chaotic chapter in U.S. history and a presidential term that supporters and foes alike agree was among the country’s most consequential.

[PurgedVoter]

21. They didn't even capture the tone of a Trump statement.

Let me help them try to capture the real voice of the Donald.

"I know more about #lawbreaking than anyone. Antifa and China with the help of the reverse vampires, (thanks Lisa,) did all of this. I am biggly proud to lead #America for the next four years, or more, stamp out #violence in the most Lawful way by using roving bands of brave armed hero. On sight firing squad cure! MAGA! Biggly! Stop the steal!#isanyonestilllisteningtothisidiot?"

[stillcool]

27. "in light of reports"

don't have to go any further. Donald did not write that, say that, or think that.

[IsItJustMe]

29. Too little too late. People are dead.

[Maeve]

31. Too much too little too late

Insert commas as you see fit

[MoonlitKnight]

32. Nothing is stopping him from invoking the 25th himself.

He could just sign a letter stating he is incapacitated. No resignation, no impeachment. Just go away and Pence is acting President.

[Sneederbunk]

33. He wrote that and I wrote the Declaration of Independence.

[malaise]

34. You will still be impeached twice

Now STFU - too late!

[Wounded Bear]

35. Just in time for Repubs to quote on the floor of Congress...

[Behind the Aegis]

36. Riiiiiiiiight!

I am sure he released this statement. Now, I am off to cash my $1 million dollar check from Publisher's Clearinghouse, because it is as real as that statement!
