Republicans must condemn siege of U.S. Capitol

As I watch the supporters of our 45th president rush the U.S. Capitol building at his urging, I have to wonder just exactly what constitutes treason. This man has been in a class of his own since he was elected by the very system he now seeks to overthrow. And even though one might have expected such a show in his final days in office, it is hard to believe that things have really come to this. I would hope that Republicans who claim to support the rule of law join other reasonable Americans in condemning this outrageous scene.
