As per your: "The Senate could say “we’re not going to honor that constitutional requirement”, but it would end up being settled by the courts (in the House’ favor, since it’s required.)"

I agree. But if the U.S. Senate were to hold a vote, say something along the lines of: The Senate here by finds that the aforesaid Article(s) of Impeachment, as transmitted / presented (even if the House never deliver's said Article's) by the U.S. House of Representatives, are "ab initio" {from the beginning} not merited. (Or pick some more flowery language to your liking.) The court's won't touch it, that's my opinion.

My Legal back ground, Law school--NONE!!!

Court room experience, 10 year's civil, 3 (three time) to Washington State Supreme Court, made Law two of the three times. This all involved the "requirements" for forming a "NEW COUNTY." Got to see up close and personal, how a corrupt justice ( or is that JUST-US) system work's. Example of what happened, without a "joining" / arguing / briefing, on a subject matter, the Washington State Supreme Court, created a holding ref: New Counties.

Now, this is where your'll probably say something like "sour - grapes." Nice try, I could give you the case number, you could listen for yourself, as one of the Justice(s) STATES ON THE RECORD, that's as far as we should go. Not to worry, those corrupt SOB's ran with the football anyway.

Ah, well, I’d just say your opinion would be incorrect, the Dems wouldn’t let that just slide by and in the courts you’d be looking to set a Constitutional precedent. And I’d rather not give the courts even more power over the elected representatives in Congress.
At any rate, none of this is going to happen. Levin knows that, it’s just some holiday tossing out of red meat on his part, a new year’s bomb-trowing to keep the audience tuned in while he’s on vacation.
