Biden denounces pro-Trump ‘mob’, Trump says he loves them

Al Jazeera  

The current and future US presidents released messages after pro-Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol. It borders on sedition.” Biden said: “To storm the Capitol, to smash windows, to occupy offices, the floor of the United States Senate, rummaging through desks … threatening the safety of duly elected officials. It’s insurrection.” Biden called on President Donald Trump, who had been tweeting from the White House during the protests, to address the nation on national television and “demand an end to this siege”. Republicans and Trump for weeks have attacked Biden’s victory as illegitimate, arguing without a shred of evidence that Trump was the rightful winner of the election and had his victory “stolen” from him by Democrats. Throughout the afternoon, Trump fired off tweets, first to criticise Pence for not fighting hard enough for him during the joint session of Congress, then to ask the protesters to: “Stay peaceful!” It was more than two hours after protesters entered the US Capitol when Trump tweeted his video asking the rioters to go home.
