Once you look beyond all the self-serving "I revere the constitution" and "I took a solemn oath" crap, it's clear these Republican officials didn't participate in Trump's coup because they were afraid of being prosecuted for their crimes.

Fear of going to prison is a pretty strong deterrent. If Trump isn't prosecuted and the rule of law is ignored, the next group of officials won't be as circumspect.
