Trump Commits to Orderly Transition of Power: ‘End of the Greatest First Term in Presidential History’:
President Donald Trump on Thursday affirmed that there will be an orderly transition of power to President-elect Joe Biden.
A statement from Trump tweeted by White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications and Director of Social Media Dan Scavino came following unprecedented scenes of a disorderly mob running amok in the U.S. Capitol after a “Stop the Steal” protest morphed into a wild riot that surged through the Capitol Building, forcing a lockdown and triggering gunfire.
