Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) said Thursday that the U.S. would be “better off” if President Trump
“Look here’s where I am. I think there’s no question that America would be better off if the president would resign or be removed from office and if Mike Pence
Hogan’s remarks came a day after a mob of Trump’s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in a bid to upend the certification of the Electoral College results affirming Biden as the president-elect. The rampage sparked brawls with police and forced the evacuation of lawmakers, congressional staffers and others in the building.
“I had a long conversation with him,” Inhofe told the outlet. “He said, ‘After all the things I’ve done for [Trump].’ ”
While those comments came before the mob descended on the Capitol on Wednesday while a joint session of Congress met to certify the votes, Inhofe added to Tulsa World on Wednesday that he believed Trump “should have shown more disdain for the rioters” who swarmed the building calling on lawmakers not to certify the election results.
“I don’t want to say he should have apologized that’s not exactly accurate but he should have expressed more disdain,” Inhofe said of the president.

“That is a little silly at this point to try to talk about thinking we could do impeachment. But I think if the Cabinet decided to support the 25th Amendment, they know what s going on much better than I do, day to day, and where things stand,” added Stivers.
“I was very disappointed in the president, but we will have a new president in 13 days. Don t confuse yourself on that. And frankly, if the president did something wrong, when he s not president anymore he could be held accountable for that, he said.
Trump s video message to the rioters asking them to stop their siege has been condemned by critics and lawmakers for appearing to support them. In the video, he said to the rioters, We love you. You re very special, while adding go home in peace.
