You got it fren
worse then nothing happens, if he is Aquitted he is innocent of the charges. (by the standard of law)
One could argue this was done by Dems to generate negative press to disparage his character for the upcoming election
(had to throw that last bit in there because there are people who get off on technicalities, though I don't believe that's the case here)
@Mersenne I would argue that is the case, there is so little evidence to the contrary.
good chance their plan backfires hard
Already has. Polls show Trump overtook Biden in key states *during* the impeachment hearings.
it already has and it will keep backfireing the longer they talk about it.
Damn, he was actually impeached. For some reason I thought there was a republican majority and he wouldn't be
It sounds like that's the case to me. The left-wing just got Yeeted out of existence in the UK with our election, and I think the Dems are terrified the same is going to happen in the US in 2020
Democratic majority in the House, Republican in the Senate
Biden's gonna get stomped
that might be their play now, they can't back down form impeachment because of how crazy their bases, so they have to throw it to the Senate, and I would bet they will just claim that he is being acquitted based on partisanship.
The main reason they did it was most likely so they'd have a better shot winning in 2020
Pretty much. The claims themselves hold little merit from a legal perspective regardless.
even though he was impeached solely on partisanship lol
This will likely have the opposite effect. Fatiguing moderate voters and catalyzing the Republican base.
and that will be the arguement back, but the (most of) news is part of the dem party so they won't report that part.
I reckon this brings the impeachment procedure into question then if Presidents can be impeached on pure partisanship.
pro strat: people are mad at us for lying, let's lie more
Here is the Schoolhouse Rock explanation of how it will work out https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/295826901132509186/657076375840227338/e3a2oh8klb541.gif
@ZERO this is why it goes to the Senate
What's to stop the Republicans impeaching the next Dem president because they don't like them? And then it just repeating every 4 years?
It doesn't go to the senate though. He's been impeached. He now can't run for office in 2020
He is Impeached. Long live the God Emperor. Senate trail house party starting soon.
Curious to see if they call the whistleblower or Biden's to the stand <:trumpepe:588019356215279642>
The Republicans don't do that. It's our weak spot. That's why we have Trump in there, no more mr nice guy
oh wait sarcasm
What goes to the senate is a vote on whether to remove him immediately or not
@Troye Is that a thing? Is he actually blocked from running in 2020 or will he be allowed is he's acquitted?
There is a price to pay if you have real principles
It's more complex then that.
No, he can still run for President if impeached by the house or aquitted by the Senate.
he can run again if he's found innocent
Which is hilarious.
