President-elect Joe Biden addressed the nation after pro-Trump protesters stormed US Capitol building.

“At this hour, our democracy is under unprecedented assault, unlike anything we’ve seen in modern times,” Joe Biden said today as Donald Trump’s supporters swarmed the Capitol to halt the certification of the electoral college vote.

“Let me be very clear, the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not reflect the true America,” the President-elect passionately added in a live address from Wilmington, Delaware covered by all the mainstream cabler newsers and broadcasters.

“This is not dissent, its disorder, it’s chaos and it borders on sedition and it must end now,” the self-described “shocked and saddened” Biden said of what he called a “dark moment” in the nation’ history.

As Biden was speaking, Trump actually put a video up on social media complaining again about the “fraudulent election” and telling his “very special” followers to “go home and go home in peace.”
