Right now, the media and Democrats only want to talk about impeaching the President for a second time. All over the news and social media, Americans are only being told the bad surrounding President Trump and how he incited the violent riots at Capitol Hill. Many don’t even know that the President released a statement condemning the riots and any violence perpetrated on American soil.

While not all that surprising, President Trump has spent the last week in somewhat of a media blackout due to being banned from Twitter and Facebook. The reason behind the ban comes after both social media platforms say Trump was inciting riots and violence. But again, that is only what the media is showing you. Check out the video below to find out more about the riots and what President Trump really had to say.

Speaking behind the Resolute Desk, President Trump doesn’t waver on his stance when condemning the violence that left five dead. In his statement, Trump said, “I want to speak to you tonight about the troubling events of the past week. As I have said, the incursion of the U.S. Capitol struck at the very heart of our republic. It angered and appalled millions of Americans across the political spectrum. I want to be very clear: I unequivocally condemn the violence that we saw last week.”

President Trump not only condemned the violence that happened at Capitol Hill, but he also denounced any future vandalism by saying, “Violence and vandalism have absolutely no place in our country. Mob violence goes against everything I believe in, and everything our movement stands for. No true supporter of mine could ever endorse political violence.”

But again, where was the coverage of Trump’s speech across the major news outlets like CNN, MSNBC, and even FOX News. All outlets have silently banned showing anything good relating to President Trump and his administration. Here we have Trump pleading with Americans to stay calm ahead of the coming weeks, yet the media continues to push the divide further apart.

As for the Democrats, they carry just as much blame as the media. They continue to attack President Trump and smear his legacy into the dirt. Unlike Trump, they can’t see that America is hurting and what it needs now more than ever is healing.
