trump and the republicans. right of the vote of mitch mcconnell to acquit trump is really telling about how conflicted the republican party is within itself mcconnell voted to acquit he said on constitutional grounds but then right after the vote said on the senate floor that he thought trump was practically and morally responsible for provoking the riot essentially agreeing with the prosecution's case but the reason you're seeing this is because there is a understanding among many republicans they believe that trump is a force that is here to stay and that those 7 republican votes to convict the president they think is basically a sign of the past republican party that is now exiting the building that is the conflict on the other wing others public and party we have of course those who did vote for conviction including bill cassidy senator of louisiana who said

today that trump is on his way out that he is not as important as the greater message of the party that the party is about ideas and not just one person but then you saw the other side of that debated by lindsey graham a strong ally of trump who said that trump is here to stay. spoke to him last night he was grateful to those lawyers he appreciated the help that all of us provided you know he's ready to move on and rebuild the republican party he's excited about 2022 this magnum movement needs to continue we need to unite the party trunk plus is the way back in 2022 he's mad at some folks but i understand that my goal is to win 2022 to stop the most radical agenda i've seen coming out of the democratic presidency of joe biden we can't do that without

donald trump so he's ready to hit the trail and i'm ready to work with him. and of course gramm is among those who voted to acquit the former president but when asked by the interviewer today whether he thought trump was responsible at all for the violence on january 6th gramm struggled a bit with the answer he said that he thought that trump's behavior was outside the line after the election and that his continued claims that there was election fraud and that the election had been stolen from him graham said was unfounded and untrue but then he followed that right up so by saying that he wants to win and you simply can't win among the g.o.p. without trump for the moment kustra for saying washington d.c. thank you. security forces a 1000000 fired shots to disperse protesters gathering in the northern states a caption it's unclear if the footage that was live streamed on facebook and it whether they used rubber bullets or live ammunition hardly ever was nor was.
