“If the Republican Party is centered solely on President Trump himself, we will fail. But if we forget what it was about his message that appealed to people who are really frustrated, then we will also fail.” @jmartNYT @alexburnsNYT https://t.co/Dn5UXDlIs6 — PolitiTweet.org

Due to delays in Congress, Biden is in danger of not having a single Cabinet official confirmed on Inauguration Day, upsetting a long tradition of ensuring at least some national security team in place. ⁦@pkcapitol⁩ ⁦@karoun⁩ ⁦@agearan⁩ https://t.co/lsQP4Zoz0q — PolitiTweet.org

For anyone who has covered the autocratic and dysfunctional states that emerged from the wreckage of the former Soviet Union as long as ⁦@ATHigginsNYT⁩ has, the mob attack on the US Capitol looked eerily familiar. https://t.co/hcTF6jCbrK — PolitiTweet.org

DeVos becomes the second cabinet secretary to resign in protest of the president’s encouragement of the mob that stormed the Capitol. “There is no mistaking the impact your rhetoric had on the situation, and it is the inflection point for me.” @EricaLG https://t.co/KVgi0K3wt3 — PolitiTweet.org

Cipollone warned Trump that he could face legal exposure for encouraging the mob as aides frantically tried to get the president to intervene and publicly call off rioters, which he did only belatedly, reluctantly and halfheartedly. ⁦@maggieNYT⁩ https://t.co/Imr7bXD6vV — PolitiTweet.org

.@WSJ editorial page calls on Trump to resign over his incitement of the mob: "This goes beyond merely refusing to concede defeat. In our view it crosses a constitutional line that Mr. Trump hasn’t previously crossed. It is impeachable.” https://t.co/jrWpZNpCM8 — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has suggested to aides that he wants to pardon himself in the final days of his presidency. It’s not clear if he has raised it again since inciting yesterday’s mob attack on the Capitol. @nytmike @maggieNYT https://t.co/dW9Io9qt4n — PolitiTweet.org

Trump seems to have surrendered his ferocious effort to hang onto power after Congress formally accepted Biden's victory but the nation’s government remained in disarray following a mob attack on the Capitol that struck at the heart of American democracy. https://t.co/PFfNX4dE8x — PolitiTweet.org

From the other side of the aisle, Kinzinger agrees: “All indications are that the president has become unmoored not just from his duty nor even his oath but from reality itself. … It’s time to invoke the 25th Amendment and to end this nightmare.” — PolitiTweet.org

"The predawn vote to reaffirm Trump’s defeat will not erase the shame of Wednesday’s violence,” @sbg1 writes. "The blame for this disaster—an insurrection incited and cheered on by an American President—rained down, swiftly and properly, on Trump himself.” https://t.co/7zrkJK7whP — PolitiTweet.org
