Did You Know Senators Can’t Campaign During an Impeachment Trial?

You are partially correct. If there is an impeachment and it goes to the Senate for a trial, no Senator can campaign (for any office) during the trial.

Impeached for what ??? Still mad Hillary didn’t win? That’s been the reason since before he was inaugurated.

To be clear, I am 99% sure the actual rule is that they have to be present at the hearing (on the Senate Floor) Mon-Sat until they are finished - during work hours.

This is not the same as saying they cannot campaign (exactly).

"...they are not voting on initiating an impeachment inqiry, they are doing a show vote to give Shiff, and others an air of legitimacy. From the letter: “This week, we will bring a resolution to the Floor that affirms the ongoing, existing investigation that is currently being conducted by our committees as part of this impeachment inquiry,”

I believe it is the same as a vote for impeachment. I think Frisco Feces Nancy sees the writing on the wall that even their own people are fed up with this nonsense and the House may lose seats in 2020. Franny did like this from the get go, but fell in line for the socialists.

“Franny did like this...” = Franny did NOT like this.

Are there enough capitol policemen to stop 2 or 3 million armed Trump supporters from lynching certain congress members?

Turnabout is fair play.

They could also just drag it out for months--keeping all Senators away from the campaign trail.

Once passed by the house, the senate becomes judge and jury, and must “sequester” themselves.

They hope to make enough noise to drown out the release of the FISA report. Just guessing that it will come out Friday.

McConnell enjoys being the senate majority leader. Whatever he does will be to maintain the status quo.

“Adam Fisch has to be killed by a Prumt supporter. You said that I could see the future? Well, this is what I see if Fisch is killed by a Prumt-loving smelly Walmart hillbilly: his assassination will absolutely flip the narrative in our favor. Poor Adam Fisch will become an instant martyr, murdered while he was searching for truth and justice against the evil forces of Harold Prumt. By the next day’s news cycle, people will think that Prumt pulled the trigger himself. The new narrative will write itself: ‘Harold Prumt was so afraid of being impeached, that he sent out dog whistles calling for Fisch to be assassinated.’ The Fisch assassination will totally derail Hardum’s investigation. Fisch will lie in state under the Capitol dome; it’ll be glorious. That moron will be more use to us dead than alive. In a very real sense, his murder will be the final article of impeachment; it’ll seal the deal. Then, in the passion of the moment, we’ll get at least twenty Republicans to vote to convict… and we’ll finally be able to drag Harold Prumt out of the White House.”

Personally, I would burn the articles, put the ashes in a blender with something putred, and send it to the offices of both California schiffs.

Never mind the Senate

If the House passes a vote that enables the Repubs to call witnesses and cross examine the dims "evidence" and whistleblowers.
