Former Maine Sen. Olympia Snowe on Saturday called for the resignation of President Trump amid a growing, bipartisan condemnation of the outgoing president’s role in Wednesday’s mob attack on the U.S. Capitol.
“President Trump should resign from office now to allow our nation to begin to heal and prepare for the transition to the Biden presidency,” Snowe, a Republican, said in a brief post on Twitter. It was a rare comment on current political events from the moderate Republican, who left the Senate in 2013 after a 34-year career representing Maine in the U.S. House and Senate.
