Given the horror they all experienced and witnessed on January 6th. But too many were afraid of the threats to themselves and their family. As it was, 10 House members voted yes on impeachment, but only 2 of them were reelected. TFG's campaign of lies about the election worked. And many used the excuse that TFG would soon be gone, anyway. *sigh*

Given all the laws he's broken and continues to break every day, he clearly should face impeachment Rhiannon12866 Mar 2025 #10
