WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump on Thursday night shared a video message condemning the storm of the US Capitol- which occurred after he requested his angry supporters to take action- and said that he would prepare for the administration of President-elect Joe Biden.

The video followed a wave of resignations from his administration and calls from top congressional Democrats, former White House aides, business leaders, and even the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal for Trump’s removal from office over his role in inciting the insurrection. Members of Congress have also discussed impeachment.

“Serving as your president has been the honor of my lifetime,” Trump said, standing behind a lectern at the White House. “And to all my wonderful supporters I know you are disappointed but I also want you to know our incredible journey is only just beginning.”
