He's not listening to anyone. He believes his own lies. He MUST be removed - too much damage he can still do in 13 days.

If Donald-the-Traitor called for the horde to surround the WH to protect him from being removed don't think for a minute they wouldn't.

But maybe the prospect of being the ONLY president to be kicked out of office for incompetence is enough to keep him in line until the 20th.

Wednesday Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who led President Donald Trump’s legal efforts to overturn his defeat in the 2020 elections, said the president’s supporters violently rioting at the US Capitol building were “on the right side of the law and history” in a tweet as the Senate chambers were evacuated on Wednesday. Earlier he called for "trial by combat".

Will somebody please lock this MF up?

Adam Kinzinger @RepKinzinger

It’s with a heavy heart I am calling for the sake of our Democracy that the 25th Amendment be invoked.

Great, Adam. When you had the chance to impeach, your Repube buddies said no. So, now you want Pence and the rest of DiaperDon's loyalists to do the dirty deed!? Good luck with that! Tell you what - how about you impeach the piece of garbage yourself this time!?

John Boehner @SpeakerBoehner

I once said the party of Lincoln and Reagan is off taking a nap. The nap has become a nightmare for our nation. The GOP must awaken. The invasion of our Capitol by a mob, incited by lies from some entrusted with power, is a disgrace to all who sacrificed to build our Republic.

A demagogue, a mob and the Sedition Caucus

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...irty-12-dozen/

All but six senators supporting objections to the counting of Arizona’s electoral college votes slunk away when it came time to cast final votes. Consider those who remained the Dirty Half Dozen: Republican Sens. Ted Cruz (Tex.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Cindy Hyde-Smith (Miss.), John Neely Kennedy (La.), Roger Marshall (Kan.) and Tommy Tuberville (Ala.).

The first two, as you could tell from their vapid and utterly contentless remarks, knew they had no legitimate basis for seeking to overthrow the duly elected government. Theirs was an act of sedition — a cynical attempt to pander to the rioters, many of whom had trashed the Capitol. The other four, I strongly suspect, simply are not very bright. Ideally, their colleagues should expel them, or at least toss them out of the Republican caucus.

Cruz, Hawley and Kennedy should face disbarment. They have violated their oaths, stoked a violent mob and attempted to tear down democracy.

On the House side, 121 Republicans — a substantial majority of the caucus, including Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.), and Minority Whip Steve Scalise (La.) — voted to overturn the Arizona election results based on nothing but conspiracies and their own lust for power. The rest of the Republican caucus might considering splitting with the party so as to not be wiped out when voters come seeking to oust the traitors to democracy. In any event, all 121 should face primary or third-party challenges. They, too, are unfit to serve. (In all, 139 representatives voted to sustain the Arizona and/or Pennsylvania objections.)

Anyone who is shocked by what these elected Republican congresspersons are doing to keep their power are living in a dream world.
