What happens if we get this wrong is written in Lincoln's second inaugural, when one party would ``make war rather than let the Nation survive.'' On September 11, we came together against an enemy without. On January 6, we were attacked by an enemy from within, the President who would make war with malice for all and charity for none. We must come together in unity today against that domestic threat to our Constitution. The alternative is too unbearable to contemplate. We must impeach bipartisanly, unanimously if you have the soul.
