Outgoing US President Donald Trump effectively conceded defeat, calling for calm and condemning the storming of the Capitol Building by his supporters.

Meanwhile, Twitter suspended his account permanently on its platform due to the “risk of further incitement of violence.”

“America is and must always be a nation of law and order. To demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol: you have defiled the seat of American democracy. To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction: you do not represent our country. And to those who broke the law: you will pay,” the 74-year-old leader said.

Trump, during his term as the US President, constantly made headlines with his controversial statements on various issues.

Top quotes of 45th U.S. President Donald Trump during his presidency:

“I feel about vaccines like I feel about tests: this is going to go away without a vaccine. It’s gonna go away, and we’re not going to see it again, hopefully, after a period of time.”

“The media is—really, the word, I think one of the greatest of all terms I’ve come up with—is fake. I guess other people have used it perhaps over the years, but I’ve never noticed it.”

“Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest — and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure. It’s not your fault.”

“Nobody has better respect for intelligence than Donald Trump.”

“Show me someone without an ego, and I’ll show you a loser — having a healthy ego, or high opinion of yourself, is a real positive in life!”

“I don’t blame China, I blame the incompetence of past Admins for allowing China to take advantage of the U.S. on trade leading up to a point where the U.S. is losing $100’s of billions. How can you blame China for taking advantage of people that had no clue? I would’ve done same!”
