Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally at the American Airlines Center in Dallas on September 14, 2015. WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump tweeted a video after making no public appearances since a mob of his supporters violently laid siege to the U.S.
Capitol. Despite previously calling the protesters "special" in a video that he tweeted amid the riot Wednesday, Trump denounced their actions in the new video posted Thursday, saying the rioters "defiled the seat of American democracy." "To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country, and to those who broke the law, you will pay," Trump said.
