meant to be the final forum for American justice, suggesting that Trump could be subject to criminal prosecution in the future.

“We have a criminal justice system in this country. We have civil litigation. And former Presidents are not immune from being held accountable by either one.”

McConnell sharply criticized his former ally in a speech on the Senate floor, directly blaming Trump for fomenting the previous month's riot.

“Former President Trump’s actions that preceded the riot were a disgraceful, disgraceful dereliction of duty,” added McConnell. “Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day.”
