Trump said he condemned Wednesday's violence at the Capitol, calling it a "heinous attack" that left him "outraged by the violence, lawlessness, and mayhem." It was a different message than the one Trump delivered on Wednesday as his supporters stormed the Capitol; at the time, he asked them to leave, but said they were "very special" and he loved them.
