“Why do they (Republican representatives) not gather as one great voice to warn the American citizens of this danger?”

Because many of them have long been compromised and not much better than the Democrats they pretend to stand against. Think about this, how can people making roughly $175k/year, in one of the most expensive areas of the U.S. while maintain a home in their voting district, become unusually wealthy?

Trump was a threat to them and their status quo. That status quo allowed money to flow into them through numerous channels: family members running companies that received government grants or gained foreign contracts, able to use money gained from election fundraising to pay a spouse or relative to "manage" their campaign funds, etc.

With Trump gone, they get to go back to the gravy train with a wink and a nod between themselves, and the occasional 'hearing' which acts as a kabuki theater for their constituents.
