“Donald Trump is not representative of the Republican Party that I fell in love with.”

“[Trump] incited those supporters to march on the Capitol.”

“My dad, my son, and I served in 5 different wars, beginning in WWII. We risked our lives to uphold our oaths. Members of the Senate took the same oath. You must do the right thing and put country above your own parochial concerns – vote to convict Trump.”

“It would be an absolute disgrace if the Republican members of the United States Senate fail to convict Donald Trump of seditiously inciting a mob to attack the nation’s Capitol. It’s time for Republicans to stand up and be men and women.”

“I’m a conservative, always have been for all my 63 years, and I am now an ex-Republican. Actually, I was a Republican until three weeks ago…Trump needs to be removed now…he needs to be removed before he does any more damage to this country.”

“Republicans need to face the consequences. There can’t be any unity if we just pretend that this never happened.”

“He has attacked our democracy and he needs to be held accountable … This man is not even going to show up to the inauguration. That is unheard of. What kind of person does that?”

“We must never allow this to happen again and we must hold all who assisted accountable …But most of all, we must hold Trump accountable. And that starts now.”

“I hope if they have any integrity left, the Republicans and Trump’s administration will come together and use our constitutional protections to remove him.”

“I really feel that it’s too dangerous to keep Trump in office …They need to either use the 25th amendment or they need to impeach him. My gosh, what more does it take?”

“I’ve been a lifelong Republican and even held office as a Republican…We have to do everything we can to curtail, cap, and contain Trump.”

“I am convinced that the President does not understand, one bit, the concept of service. Nor does he intend to ever do what is right for our country.”

“I speak from my Evangelical heart to Vice-President Pence and the Cabinet. Not one more day. Not one more hour of this plague in our Oval Office.”

“Trump incited this. Trump should not get away with this. Trump should be removed from office.”
