it is very simple why the Republican leader objected to our resolution and offers this one instead. It is because they do not want to condemn what the President did, though every fair-minded American of any political party would. We certainly should condemn violence. Let me repeat: This resolution condemns violence. But it is insufficient, in the light of what happened yesterday, to just condemn violence and not condemn what the President did as well, so I will object to my colleague's resolution. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard.
