He referred to the protesters as “insurrectionists” and condemned political violence.
“One desperate act available to him, the violence of January the 6th. And since that day, more than 1,200 people have been charged with assault on the Capitol. Nearly 900 of them have been convicted or pled guilty. Collectively, to date, they have been sentenced to more than 840 years in prison,” Biden said to cheers.
“The rest of the nation, including law enforcement, saw a lot of hate and violence. One Capitol Police officer called it a medieval battle.”
“That same officer called vile rape, was called vile racist names.”
“What’s Trump done? Instead of calling them criminals, he’s called these insurrectionists ‘patriots.’ They’re patriots. And he promised to pardon them if he returns to office,” he added.

“Trump was trying to steal history the same way he tried to steal the election. But he, we knew the truth because we saw it with our own eyes. This wasn’t like something, a story being told. It was on television repeatedly. We saw it with our own eyes,” he said.
“Trump’s mob wasn’t a peaceful protest. It was a violent assault. They were insurrectionists, not patriots. They weren’t there to uphold the Constitution. They were there to destroy the constitution.”
However, he was criticized for ignoring his vice president’s support for BLM extremists in 2020.
