This week on Polilogue, we look at the conversations that took place on the Sunday shows with Republican senators about the impending impeachment trial. Very few Republicans were were willing to suggest clear accountability measures against the former president who encouraged an insurrection at the Capitol. We also spoke about President Biden\\u2019s proposed COVID relief bill. Some shows put their attention on people suffering, other shows focused on the Washington insider baseball game.
