After being banned from Twitter for tweets and a video that allegedy helped incite the riot at the Capitol Building Wednesday, President Trump returned to social media Thursday with a stronger condemnation of the violence and the message that the United States will soon have a new president:

This should’ve happened in November. https://t.co/92KmFAt15D

And the thing is: if Trump had said this in November, the legacy could’ve been okay.
What an unforced, despicable error.

I agree. Maybe a week or so post election. None of the fraud tour stuff. Nip the lawsuits in the bud early, have the Senate approve 2K personal stimulus and the whole world would look much different than it is today.

After two months, five deaths, and national humiliation he finally commits to a peaceful transition. Too late. https://t.co/qJaEVg5l0F

This Trump would’ve won. https://t.co/o3G5Dm1pks

This isn’t the real Trump though. He’s shown this time and time again.

Good statement. https://t.co/1saU8zw4iq

This is a very, very good speech from President Trump. He hit many of the right notes. Just one, big problem — it's many, many weeks late pic.twitter.com/8dUP656ZLh

If Donald Trump gave that speech a few days after the election as a formal concession speech, I think it would be remembered as not only a positive one for the history books, but it could have helped the GOP save the Senate. https://t.co/A7FQ6TleI7

Yep.
Instead he called Mike Pence a coward

The fix was in for the senate. No matter what he said the outcome would still be the same.

If only he’d delivered it earlier…even just a week earlier. What a difference it may have made.

Republicans really should've put more pressure on Trump to concede before the Georgia runoff.

I think 74 million disenfranchised voters might disagree.

Right on time. And "we've only just begun". No concession, no retraction. A true leader and a man of conviction who respects the American people.
— CuriousDar (@CuriousDar) January 8, 2021
He doesn't believe any of it and will recant most or all of it soon

You haven’t paid close attention. He’s always been this way. But too many of you paid attention to the MSM.
— Bro ?? (@bromom3) January 8, 2021
He’s made a LOT of mistakes over the last year. That first debate performance was awful. So much for 4D chess, I’ve been disappointed, but who else is there again? He’s still my leader.
— Jack Moss (@BlueCodePhoenix) January 8, 2021
Jesus, folks. I have no shame in telling you I'm about to fucking cry. He was the greatest President this country's ever known. All he ever did was try to give us his best. pic.twitter.com/XrnnXG5miw

Maybe we’ll hear more from him in the future if Twitter and Facebook don’t ban him.
