Republicans always do this.
Trump does something terrible. At first, they’re caught flat-footed, but within days, they unite behind an excuse to avoid accountability and an unrelated deflection grievance.
This time, it’s calls to “unify & move on” and their free speech outrage.

Republicans are telling Democrats to "turn down the temperature” that they themselves raised.
They demonized the left, lied about the election, and incited an insurrection and now they think it’s on Dems to turn down the heat? Nah. That’s on them.
It’s accountability time.

If Republicans want to garner literally any goodwill whatsoever, they all need to play a part in deprogramming the Trump cult.
They should go on right-wing media and tell the people they radicalized that they lied to them. They won’t do it, but that would be a good start.

But if Republicans think they can use calls for “unity” as a way to talk Democrats out of impeaching Trump and subsequently pushing for a vote to prevent him from ever running for office again, they’re mistaken.
