Ted Lieu
@tedlieu· Democratic · CA· Jan 11, 2021

Donald Trump called his support his show up on January 6, because that's when Congress was going to formalize his loss and Joe Biden's when, he then gave a speech telling them that the election was stolen. He told him to stop this deal, marched down Pennsylvania Avenue, go to the Capitol and to fight like hell, and they listened. And the person responsible for inciting this insurrection is Donald Trump. That's why we need to remove him from office as soon as possible.

The reason that I continue to believe it's a live prospect that the president will resign is not because it's good for the country and the president would do something good for the country, I believe it's a live issue because I think the president may conclude that it would be the best thing for him.

I do believe that the president of the United States, Trump, has organized and worked in a way that, even after he's not serving as a president, that he believes that he's going to have control over a significant population in this country that he can use to basically rule and to basically confront whatever entity he'd like to confront that's not agreeing with him.

Arnold Schwarzenegger

I grew up in Austria, and I'm very aware of Kristallnacht or the night of broken glass. It was a night of rampage against the Jews carried out in 1938 by the Nazi equivalent of the Proud Boys. Wednesday was a day of broken glass right here in the United States. The mob did not just shatter the windows of the Capitol. They shattered the ideals we took for granted. They trampled the very principles on which our country was founded.
