Donald Trump spoke of a smooth transition of power on January 20, despite his disagreement, shortly after the ratification of the result of the US elections by Congress, following the invasion of the Capitol by supporters of the outgoing president.
According to his spokesman, Dan Scavino, Donald Trump stated that “although I completely disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts confirm it, there will be a smooth transition of power on January 20.”
This is “the end of one of the best first presidential terms and it is only the beginning of our fight to restore America to its greatness,” he added.
… Fight to ensure that only legal votes are counted. While this represents the end of the best first term in presidential history, it is just the beginning of our fight to make America great again! “
