Obama for unrest: This is a shameful moment for our nation.

The protest was initiated by supporters of President Donald Trump, who does not recognise the election outcome with the claim that they were stolen.

“History will rightly remember today's violence in the Capitol, promoted by a sitting president who has continued to lie without basis for the outcome of a legitimate election, as a moment of disgrace and great shame for our nation. But we'd be joking ourselves if we treated it as a total surprise”, he wrote Obama on Facebook.

But Obama says the attack has been prompted by a <x0 president, who continues to lie about the outcome of the constitutional elections”.

However, we would have been scoffing at ourselves if we were to treat it as a total surprise”, Obama said, to add that republican stories have misled their followers about the truth of the 3 November election.

Democrat Joe Biden has been declared the winner of the election, but current president, Donald Trump, has rejected the results, as have several other republics. They have repeatedly made baseless claims on election fraud. Obama called on republican leaders to select America “.

Four people died while 52 were arrested in these riots.
