BURNETT: “And, Congressman, last time we spoke, you voted against, you voted against now. Last time you said it would probably end up this way because they would go ahead with the votes once they got everyone in the room, and indeed they have. You stuck with your point of view, as did your peers Gallagher and McClintock. Did you reconsider your vote at all before tonight? Because you were receiving a lot of backlash. I would tune into Fox News occasionally. I would hear your name always used in vain on this particular issue. Did you reconsider at all?”

BUCK: “No. The reality is, the facts didn’t change in my opinion of him. I prosecuted for 25 years. I know what a high crime and misdemeanor are and I know that this doesn’t qualify. This is a policy difference. You can try to put lipstick on this pig. It is still a pig. And this is a terrible impeachment. It sets a terrible precedent. The first impeachment of Donald Trump was a bad impeachment. And we’ve got to stop this in this body, or we are going to lose our credibility with the — further lose our credibility with the American public.”
