U.S. President Donald Trump, under pressure to resign after his supporters carried out a deadly breach of the U.S. Capitol last week, said there was tremendous anger about moves to impeach him but added he did not want violence.
In his first remarks to reporters since Dec. 8, the embattled Republican president did not answer a question about whether he would resign.
He criticized impeachment moves by Democratic lawmakers, and downplayed the severity of last Wednesday’s events, comparing to Black Lives Matter protests that took place during the summer.
