Democrat: GOP colleagues say they're 'afraid for their lives' if they vote to impeach Trump
By Dominick Mastrangelo - 01/13/21 12:07 PM EST
Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) said Republicans he spoke with on Tuesday evening wept and told him they fear their personal safety as they weigh whether to vote in favor of impeachment of President Trump this week.
"The majority of them are paralyzed with fear," Crow said Wednesday on MSNBC. "I had a lot of conversations with my Republican colleagues last night. A couple of them actually broke down in tears, saying that they are afraid for their lives if they vote for this impeachment."
Crow, who did not name the lawmakers, said he told them "welcome to the club."
"That's leadership. Our country is in a very challenging time. Many of us have felt that way for a very long time because we have stood up for democracy," he said. "And we expect them to do the same."
