In a video message Wednesday afternoon, Trump told protesters to ‘Go Home’ and said that peace was needed.
At some point, after the tweet was sent, Twitter suspended Trump’s account for a period of 12-Hours, according to reports.
Twitter also removed two other tweets from the president Wednesday in which he continued attacks on the election results.
Trump was criticized for the message after violence took over the Capitol building in Washington today.
The message can be watched below and the transcript of the message says:
“I know your pain. I know you’re hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us. It was a landslide election and everyone knows it especially the other side, but you have to go home now. We have to have peace. We have to have law and order. We have to respect for great people in law and order. We don’t want anybody hurt. It’s a very tough period of time. There has never been at time like this where such a thing happened where they can take it away from all of us. From me, from you, from our country. This was a fraudulent election, but we can’t play into the hands of these people. We have to have peace, so go home. We love you, you’re very special. You’ve seen what happens, you see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. I know how you feel, but go home and go home in peace.“
