Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) became the only member of the Republican Party to vote to convict former President Donald Trump for incitement of insurrection after voting only earlier this week that the trial was unconstitutional.
In a statement after the trial, Burr argued that while he still believed that the trial was unconstitutional, because the Senate established a “precedent” that the trial was constitutional, he was forced to consider the evidence presented to him as an impartial juror.
