🔥Dozens of influential @GOP in DC—including former top Trump administration officials—have been quietly lobbying GOP members of Congress to impeach and #ConvictTrump.
Efforts started with the @HouseGOP, but now are focused on Minority @LeaderMcConnell.

“Mitch said to me he wants Trump gone," per 1 @HouseGOP.
The GOP whisper campaign is based on a shared belief that a successful conviction is critical for the future of the GOP, described as a “reckoning.”
The GOP had better face a “reckoning,” after Trump’s #sedition.🤬

The lobbying effort has included behind-the-scenes pressure by GOP donors—#Sedition is bad for business and political fundraising.🤷♀️
PLUS calls from former top Trump WH officials and a set of talking points **circulating among Republicans arguing FOR Trump's impeachment**.😎

🔥The GOP memo argues that Trump "urged supporters...to come to DC to disrupt" Congress & egged on the crowd,"widely understood to include people who were planning to fight physically & who were PREPARED TO DIE in response to his false claims of a 'stolen election.''

The GOP memo, lobbying for to #ConvictTrump points out Trump "tweeted and made other statements against the VP as the Secret Service was being forced to rush @Mike_Pence out of the Senate chamber and into a protective bunker."
The #Seditionists plotted to kidnap and KILL him.🤬

Just after the #TrumpInsurrection, McConnell hammered Trump: “The mob was fed lies. They were provoked by (Trump) & other powerful people. And they tried to use fear & violence to stop a specific proceeding...which they did not like. But we pressed on."
Trump and the rest of the #Seditionists *must* pay for their crimes.
Any @SenateGOP who refuse to vote to #ConvictTrump will wear the stain of Trump’s treasonous #sedition FOREVER.
CONVICT THAT TRAITOR NOW.🤬
