Should complicit Republicans be exposed by name in the Impeachment Trial? [View all]

Should Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Marco Rubio, Ron Johnson, Lindsey Graham and others that were complicit in the Big Lie be asked to dismiss themselves from the trial?

If they refuse, then video should be provided for the people to judge. They cannot be fair jurors. Is that a fair point for Democrats to make?

Play the game just like the Republicans would play it.
