Yes, this legislative session ends January 3, 2021.
Which leaves a really bizarre possibility:
1. Trump is re-elected next November.
2. Pelosi finally transmits Articles of Impeachment, and list of House Managers, to Senate.
3. The impossible happens and Senate promptly convicts Trump.
4. Trump leaves office.
5. Pence is promptly inaugurated.
6. Trump is inaugurated January 21, 2021.
Removal from office doesn’t mean he can’t come back.
A bar from holding public office can be part of the sentence imposed by the Senate.
Removal from office doesn’t mean he can’t come back.
Surprise,surprise, it appears the Democrats are willing to make subtle change as it appears if the Senate were to remove Trump the rats were sure to add the provision he can never hold elected office again. I’ll look it up and see if they authorized a stake be driven tru his heart also.
Or somewhat less convoluted, Pelosi sits on the articles, through some twist of fate the Dems win the Senate, then Trump is inaugurated for his 2nd term only to be removed shortly thereafter. I think some of them are so deluded that this is what they are counting on.
