Credit where credit is due. In both the impeachment vote and now in the #USElection2020 certification, @SenatorRomney shows courage, conviction and a sense of the historical moment. @davidfrum @GeorgeWill

IMPORTANT: this is exact moment the siege of the Capitol building began as the two men in front ripped down a preliminary barrier & rushed officers who were behind a 2nd barrier
