Donald Trump was impeached while he was still President but the trial was not held immediately because the Senate was not willing to return from recess. The following are comments by Republican members of the House of Representatives who voted for the Impeachment. These Representatives risked their careers and their personal safety to make these statements.

The Pennsylvania decision:

On January 6 my country was attacked. I had already read the transcript of Trump's Jan 2 call to try to bully election officials in Georgia into falsifying their election results. On Jan 6 I was worried that there would be violent conflicts between the Trump people and counter protesters. Once it became clear that the Capitol building was being attacked I kept waiting for Trump to call off his supporters. One tweet would have made all the difference. Trump's incessant lies about the election results were the direct cause of the attack on the capitol.
