In a recent interview, the former president addressed questions regarding the events of January 6th and the peaceful transfer of power, emphasizing his lack of involvement in the Capitol riot. He defended his actions on that day, stating that he had only been asked to make a speech and had offered to provide additional security measures, which were rejected by congressional leaders.
During the interview, the former president expressed regret over the violence that occurred at the Capitol but shifted blame to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the mayor of Washington, D.C., alleging that they failed to adequately secure the area. He also criticized the handling of border security and raised concerns about individuals entering the country from various parts of the world.
