What's wrong with that?

Isn't the impeachment process:

HR impeaches

Senate convicts and...

Supreme Court signs off on the whole thing?

Supreme Court is not involved except that the Chief Justice presides over the trial in the Senate

No.

The Chief Justice “presides” over the House process.

Other than that, the USSC has no role in Impeachment.

This is a stupid question by Graham.

The House writes up the charge, passes it onto the Senate.

The Senate must get a 2/3’s majority. With this scenario in place, it’s impossible to think of any way that an impeachment would happen with anyone.

Then they hand the paperwork over to the Sec of State. End of the whole process. No action by the Supreme Court.

The stupidity of Graham just amazes me that he wastes time like this and ask a question like this.
