In his first comments since last Wednesday, Trump continued to whine about the election results. He said efforts to impeach him over his decision to send his heavily-armed supporters into Capitol Hill were a "witch hunt."

As Trump has always done, he spoke out of both sides of his mouth. In one mention he calls for no violence but he then followed it up by justifying the violent anger his supporters feel the need to express through terrorist attacks and armed revolt.

"For Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to continue on this path, I think it's causing tremendous danger to our county and it's causing tremendous anger. I want no violence," he told reporters as he prepared to fly to Texas for a rally.
