Trump must be held accountable

I can't imagine what it must be like to live your life with no self worth. Not for yourself, your family or your co-workers. Yet, that is what too many Republicans in D.C. are doing. They don't care that they and their co-workers could have been killed on Jan. 6. They don't care that three police officers did die and close to 100 were seriously injured fighting to save them from being hurt or killed.

They don't care the Capitol was savagely and brutally busted into. That their co-workers were being hunted down with calls for hangings. If they had been killed that day, would their families have not wanted to see Trump be punished for his part in their deaths? Would Trump have gone to the funerals and consoled the families? I doubt it.

If a neighbor and some friends came over to their home and did this, they would have been arrested. Trump has to be held accountable for what happened that day. If not by impeachment, then arrest him.

Throw him in jail with all his good friends from that day. I'm sure they would have a lot to talk about.

Ask yourself why did any of this have to happen? You all know the truth and so does he. All he needed to say was, I'll see you in 2024, the end.

But no, he had to hold one more rally knowing the outcome of the vote could not change and so here we are.
