Wall Street Journal (January 8)
With 13 days remaining in Trump’s presidency, “the best outcome would be for him to resign to spare the U.S. another impeachment fight.” Though impeachment could send a valuable “message to future Presidents that Congress will protect itself from populists of all ideological stripes willing to stir up a mob and threaten the Capitol or its Members.” Doing this “so late in the term” wouldn’t be “easy or without rancor…. It is best for everyone, himself included, if he goes away quietly.”

“Trump is a danger to his own country. He shouldn’t be president for one more minute,” It is “time for Republicans to help Democrats impeach Trump. He must be punished for unleashing a mob on lawmakers in his quest to reverse an election he lost.”

New York Times (August 12)
“When Mr. Trump fans racist rage against the president, suggests that gun owners take up arms against Mrs. Clinton, or speaks darkly of a ‘rigged’ election, he is not trying to woo Republican skeptics, independents or undecided voters. He is appealing to the mob.”
