What we really have to remember is that impeachment is a political process, not a judicial one. They make their own rules. Since democrats decided on the day Trump was elected to impeach him, they have been looking for political cover to do so for 3 years. Now they are getting desperate...

The question posed was , Do they have to? And the answer is no. But like you, I believe they will, but I also believe the "trial" will not resemble what most of us normally consider to be a trial.

Democrats are afraid of nothing. They control the flow of information by controlling the media.

We already know that is true. They don't even have to bring it to the floor. Said bills can, and frequently are, almost completely ignored.

But any ruling of his can be overturned by a majority vote of the Senate.

Yet, the Senate has,, in the past, used committees to gather evidence and question witnesses, rather than holding what we normally would consider a "trial". 2 judges who were impeached appealed their verdicts on those grounds. SCOTUS ruled that the the Senate could conduct "trials" any way...

Exactly. But not Constitutionally. But the fact is Republicans can change the rules and blow it off if they so desire. They won't. But they could.

As always.

Democrats are allowed to be hypocrites. Republicans aren't.

Show me the quote from the Constitution that says the Senate MUST hold a trial when presented with articles of impeachment by the House. Senate rules mean nothing and can be changed at any time by a majority vote.

Yep. CrowdStrike is definitely off limits for democrats and their lapdog media.

Yeah. I caught that right away. Mitch knows they make their own rules. And whatever "trial" they have won't resemble what most people consider a "trial". He'll give a nod to the Constitution, but the fact is the Senate can almost completely ignore the wishes of the House, have a vote and...

You're quibbling. Post it. If you can.

Please post the quote from the Constitution that states the Senate is required to hold a trial when presented with articles of impeachment by the House.

They can't.

When the Senate is presented articles of impeachment by the House, do they have to hold a trial? Mitch McConnell says yes. I say no.

Absolutely none.

She may be delusional enough to convince herself she should run again, and I hope she does. Her defeat in the primary would be overwhelming and complete. Then maybe she would get the message of just how irrelevant she is, and she would just go away.

Is anybody really listening to this nutcase?
