PHOENIX (AP) — Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey says President Donald Trump “bears some responsibility” for the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week but he does not support impeachment.

The Republican governor told KTAR on Thursday that the focus should be on moving forward, not retribution for Trump. Ducey also says he’ll attend the inauguration of Democrats Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as president and vice president. He says he’ll disagree with some of Biden’s agenda but wishes him well. Ducey was a staunch supporter of Trump but took heat from the president and many of his supporters when he signed the certification of Arizona’s election results showing a narrow win for Biden.
