evidence: After January 6, 2021 [...] Republicans, by and large, were entirely horrified by Donald Trump’s behavior on Jan. 6. The thing that really solidified it for a lot of the people who had been the president’s supporters was the fact that he did nothing to stop the riot while it was undergoing. The fact that he didn’t come out until way too late to tell people to go home. The fact that he didn’t condemn the attack on the Capitol. And there was a real sense that he was done. [...] You know, I had a member of Congress say to me, "These people were willing to come after us inside the United States Capitol building. What are they going to do to me when I’m at home with my wife and kids?" If Jan. 6 was political terrorism, I think you have to say that it worked.
