Senate votes trial constitutional; six Republicans vote 'yes'

The Senate rejected an attempt on Tuesday to derail former President Trump’s impeachment trial by getting it declared unconstitutional.

Senators voted 56-44 that the trial is constitutional. The vote required only a simple majority.

Six GOP senators joined with Democrats to say they believe the trial is constitutional, largely mirroring a similar vote from late last month.

Apparently Trump's lawyers did a shit job of arguing that this trial would be unconstitutional, but still only six Republicans had the balls to put country before party.

Are you really surprised after the first Impeachment hearing about Ukraine?

The GOP were basically acting as Trump's lawyers for him the entire time.

Not really seeing the goal here. The point of impeachment is to remove a sitting president from office, leaving you free to persue criminal charges against him as you would any private citizen.


If this trial is all about conviction of crimes from while in office... Since he's no longer protected by the executive office as is, can't they jump straight to a criminal trial?

Well it could also lead to him not being able to run again for office.

Wouldn't a federal conviction do that anyways?

Biden may be a Centrist himself, but his party has a significant Radical Leftist group in it and I fear he'll give in to some, if not all, of their demands.

Define significant. By all means, tell us what percentage of the party are "radical leftists." You know that Democrats are liberals, and liberalism is not leftist, right?
