We're going to have to fight much harder and Mike Pence is going to have to come through for us. If he doesn't, that will be a sad day for our country because you're sworn to uphold our constitution. Now it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. After this, we're going to walk down and I'll be there with you. We're going to walk down. We're going to walk down any one you want, but I think right here. We're going walk down to the Capitol, and we're going to cheer on our brave senators, and congressmen and women. We're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them because you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong.
-- Outgoing president Donald Trump, in a speech (rev.com) that was followed by a march on the Capitol by thousands of rioters who interrupted Congress, vandalized property, and engaged in violence that resulted in injuries and at least one death, 6 January 2021
