In his latest video, Trump condemns the violence at the Capitol Image source: CNBC In a video posted to the White House's Twitter account, President Donad Trump condemned last week's violence at the Capitol, and spoke out against the social media censorship that followed. He did not mention the House vote for his impeachment, which occurred just hours before the video went live.    "I want to be very clear," he said. "I unequivocally condemn the violence that we saw last week. Violence and vandalism have absolutely no place in our country, and no place in our movement."   He continued: "No true supporter of mine could ever endorse political violence. NO true supporter of mine could ever disrespect law enforcement or our great American flag. No true supporter of mine could ever threaten or harass their fellow Americans."    What else was said during the video?
