The best outcome would be for him to resign to spare the U.S. another impeachment fight.

Washington Examiner

Immediately before the riot began, he told supporters at a rally on the National Mall not to “take it any longer” and to march on Congress. Rudy Giuliani called for “trial by combat.” This was demagoguery of the most grotesque kind. It should mark Trump with permanent disgrace, bring on him legal remedies, and disbar him from public life forever. 

National Review

Rich Lowry: The president has been engaged in a grotesque display of failed leadership since he insisted late on Election Night that he’d won big.

Fox News

Tim Graham: This is not a time for calling out double standards. This is a time for standards. Respecting the home of our Congress is the lowest possible standard for American civilization. You don't Make America Great Again by shoving cops and breaking glass on Capitol Hill.

It should also be remembered as a result of the devaluation of character. Trump’s critics have dwelt — even harped, we’ve been told — on his character flaws. But his extreme indifference to truth, his eagerness to spread conspiracy theories, his unwillingness to take responsibility for his own failures: All of it has had real consequences.

Pat Buchanan

What Americans watched was a mob occupation and desecration of the temple of the American Republic. And the event will be forever exploited to discredit not only Trump but the movement he led and the achievements of his presidency.

American Greatness

Donald Trump the wrecking ball was much-needed—and tremendously successful. But it is imperative for our nascent movement’s prospects that President Trump go away after January 20.

Washington Free Beacon

A Washington state school-board member is under fire for using the phrase "crack the whip" during a virtual board meeting—a phrase his critics say is racist.During a Dec. 14 board meeting for the Clover Park School District, board member Paul Wagemann told his colleagues that "we need to crack the whip" on increasing the graduation rate.

National Review

It began in shame and dishonesty. It concludes in shame, dishonesty, cowardice, and rebellion against the Constitution.

NY Post

The shocking scenes in and outside the Capitol complex were not displays of too-zealous patriotism. They were unpatriotic and unAmerican…This time, there is no defense of Trump. He owns this.

PJ Media

Tyler O’Neil: Never in my life did I expect to see the president of the U.S. refuse to condemn a mob that broke into the U.S. Capitol. There is no place for political violence in America, and the president needs to be the first person to always insist upon that. Tragically, Trump not only failed to denounce the mob but even praised some of them, essentially coddling rioters.

Daily Caller

They do not bum rush members of Congress. They do not assault strangers. They do not push and shove police officers and trash federal buildings. These are things criminals do, and criminals of any political stripe deserve one thing: the rule of law.

Fox News

Deroy Murdock: In an astonishing act of self-sabotage, these idiots now have made it enormously difficult for those of us who admire President Trump for his enormous domestic and international policy victories.

Fox News

Karl Rove: Mr. President, the people who did this are responsible for their vile actions, but you brought them together today, asked them to share your anger and sent them down Constitution Avenue to the Capitol. It’s up to you to tell your followers that what some among them have done is unacceptable to you and the entire country. You must promise justice will be meted out to those who broke into our Capitol…

Ann Coulter

Maybe Americans are terrified of the Democrats, but they are also sick of Trump.
