The state party announced the passage of its censure resolution on Saturday in a statement, with Chairman Drew McKissick sharing the party's "disappointment" with Rice's vote.
"Trying to impeach a president, with a week left in his term, is never legitimate and is nothing more than a political kick on the way out the door," said McKissick. "Congressman Rice's vote unfortunately played right into the Democrats' game, and the people in his district, and ultimately our State Executive Committee, wanted him to know they wholeheartedly disagree with his decision."
The pro-Trump resentment has extended to officials beyond Congress. The Arizona GOP voted to censure Gov. Doug Ducey, former Sen. Jeff Flake, and Cindy McCain, the widow of the late Sen. John McCain, for either refusing to engage with Trump's election fraud challenges or supporting the candidacy of his opponent, President Biden.

Good good good!
Now vote the idiot out.
He did NOT represent his constituents, and it is part of his legacy now.
Why doesn’t Utah do this with Mitt Romney, and Pierre Dilecto?
Stinking lousy RINOS...Didn’t wait for due process or the facts ..... Just hang him NOW
It appears the GOP is keeping up the pressure. Good to see it continue.
Exactly....they screwed themselves and I figure the GOP knows it cannot let these folks pass go as they have in the past.
You have to get those in Utah to answer that.
Why doesn’t Utah do this with Mitt Romney, AND MIKE LEE
FOR HIS H1B VISA SCAMS.
AMERICA FIRST STARTS WITH REMOVING RINOS.
exactly!
Everywhere they go they should be ‘maxwat’ out of there! Give them back what Maxine wanted for the Trump admin.
Never did really like Utah...after Romney and his ilk (people like Derilecto) were clearly defined by their votes, I was ready to secede Utah to Mars.
Maaaaaaybe they are seeing R’s flee from the GOP. They are always only reactionary.
*APPLAUSE*
‘The Trump Curse’ strikes again! Maybe we should start calling it the, ‘We The People’ curse? ;)
President Trump and We The People are going to have a blast in 2022 knocking these mental midgets down like so many bowling pins.
And, I can’t wait! :)
I agree. Glad to see this happening.
I know that the leaders of the GOP see the handwriting on the wall and know that the GOP will no longer be the same as President Trump changed that forever.
Ironic, the majority of GOP in Congress didn’t censure McCarthy nor McConnell for their damaging statements saying Trump was to blame for the riots.

Other than a negative recognition by political colleagues, what else does a censure accomplish? All bark and no bite?
