Schwarzenegger blasts 'spinelessness' of fellow Republicans after Capitol riot | NBC News |

"The broken glass was in the windows of the United States Capitol," Schwarzenegger said. "But the mob did not just shatter the windows of the Capitol, they shattered the ideas we took for granted. They didn't just break down the doors of the building that housed American democracy, they trampled the very principles on which our country was founded."

Trump is a failed leader who will soon become irrelevant, Schwarzenegger said. He then turned on elected officials who enabled Trump and referred to President John F. Kennedy's book, "Profiles in Courage."

"A number of members of my own party, because of their own spinelessness, would never see their names in such a book, I guarantee you.
They're complicit with those who carried the flag of self righteous insurrection into the Capitol."
