I would like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol.

Like all Americans I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem.

I immediately deployed the national guard and federal law enforcement to secure the building and expel the intruders.

America is and must always be a nation of law and order.

The demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy.

To those who engaged in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country, and to those who broke the law, you will pay.

We have just been through an intense election, and emotions are high, but now tempers must be cooled, and calm restored.

We must get on with the business of America.

My campaign vigorously pursued every legal avenue to contest the election results.

My only goal was to ensure the integrity of the vote.

In so doing I was fighting to defend American democracy.

I continue to strongly believe that we must reform our election laws to verify the identity and eligibility of all voters, and to ensure faith and confidence in all future elections.

Now congress has certified the results.

A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20th.

My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth and orderly and seamless transition of power.

This moment calls for healing and reconciliation.

2020 has been a challenging time for our people.

A menacing pandemic has upended the lives of our citizens, isolated millions in their homes, damaged our economy, and claimed countless lives.

Defeating this pandemic and rebuilding the greatest economy on earth will require all of us working together.

It will require a renewed emphasis on the civic values of patriotism, faith, charity, community and family.

We must revitalize the sacred bonds of love and loyalty that bind us together as one national family.

To the citizens of our country, serving as your president has been the honor of my lifetime, and to all of my wonderful supporters, I know you are disappointed, but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning.

Thank you, God Bless you, and God Bless America.

Transcriber's comment: Read carefully. This reads more like a statement of the situation than a concession speech, and has multiple audiences: Those who know the truth, those who spread the truth, those who spread falsehoods, and those who do not know a single thing about the truth.

Every person in the audience listens to what they think they are listening to more than what their ears actually hear. That includes the MSM, who will gleefully jump at the opportunity to say that Trump has conceded, where he has not actually said that in this statement. That includes us, too, who can't begin to comprehend what exactly is going down and which words hold double meaning.

Did we really go through all of the past several years of fighting for The Donald just to think that Trump, who wants to Win, threw in the towel?

Remember, we know only part of the truth and we were just shown a good chunk of it by Trump. We may be disappointed, but it ain't over yet.
