Former GOP Rep. Barbara Comstock of Virginia said on Sunday that if former President Donald Trump went missing, not many Republicans would be “in the search party.”
Comstock made the statement during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” where she discussed the Senate’s rejection of a bill to set up an independent commission to investigate the January 6 Capitol insurrection.
The bill was crafted through a bipartisan deal led by Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, and GOP Rep. John Katko of New York, the panel’s ranking member.
The House passed the bill 252-175, with 35 Republicans joining Democrats to support the legislation.
Last Friday, a motion to advance the bill in the Senate was defeated 54-35, receiving the support of all present Democrats and six Republicans but failing to meet the 60-vote threshold to overcome the filibuster.
Comstock had gone to Capitol Hill with the family of Brian Sicknick – the Capitol Police officer who died after the insurrection – along with Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn and Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone to meet with Republican senators to persuade them to support the legislation.
