Now-former President Donald Trump is already up for facing legal battles, the biggest one so far being a Senate trial following his impeachment from the House shortly before leaving office. As Democratic lawmakers try and rally support from Republicans, a group of House staffers penned a letter to the Senate, urging them to convict the former president.
The staff members penned a letter in the hopes of sending a bipartisan message to the Senate about the upcoming trial. The letter notes the trauma their aides and even the lawmakers themselves have experienced last January 6, when a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol and killed six people, one of which was a police officer. Trump was accused of inciting the insurrection due to the rally he held hours prior in Washington, encouraging the supporters present to break into the Capitol. Further reports revealed that the mob was targeting lawmakers, particularly House and Senate leadership including then-vice president Mike Pence.
In an effort to get Republican staff members to sign onto the letter, they organized the signatures so they can sign with just their email address. They left out the representatives they work for. The letter pins the blame solely on Trump for the insurrection. The rest of the signatures have yet to be collected and when they will send the letter to the Senate has yet to be determined.
“As employees of the U.S. House of Representatives, we don’t have a vote on whether to convict Donald J. Trump for his role in inciting a violent attack at the Capitol, but our Senators do. And for our sake, and for the sake of the country, we ask that they vote to convict the former president and bar him from ever holding office again,” said the staffers in the letter.
Despite Trump’s hopes to run for the presidency again in 2024, that might have been crushed when RNC chairperson Ronna Romney McDaniel told the Associated Press replied to a question on whether she would encourage the former president to run again.
McDaniel did not mention Trump but maintained that the Republican party must stay neutral and that would be up to the candidates who hope to run for the presidency.
