Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-Pa.) said Wednesday that he opposes the push to impeach President Donald Trump, arguing Trump’s words did not incite protesters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Reschenthaler told colleagues on the House floor in Washington that he’s “deeply troubled” by the Capitol breach and wants those responsible to be “brought to justice.”
