As I see it, the only divide in our politics that matters right now is between those who believe in democracy and those who do not. All other differences now pale in comparison.

To my colleagues who still believe in our democracy, regardless of your ideological views, in me you will have a partner who wants to work with you to restore our nation. We will not always agree, but I look forward to debating the important issues that we face.

To those who don’t, however, including some I considered friends, until you fully renounce the efforts to overthrow our democracy, know that I will oppose you at every turn and history will judge you more harshly than you can imagine.
