Because these so-called Constitutional "researching" nut jobs can see a penumbra in impeaching a past president, however when the Constitution was in the process of working at the point where the seven states with double electors needed to be settled and they had the one Senator who objected which actually began the debate process to settle those double set of electors, what did numskull Pence do? Instead of pausing the proceeding like he should have, he asked the Congressional parliamentarian what he should do and the guy told him to certify, which was totally unConstitutional.
Those Constitutional researchers can see fit to say President Trump could use and old-fashioned impeachment, but they can't spare a few brain cells to follow the Constitution correctly when it is really needed?
What the hell good are they?
Seems very odd that he did not know what he was going to do in that circumstance well before January 6.
It seems so odd that I believe that he did know what he was going to do.
Anyone paying attention to the way things were going knew that it was likely to happen. Pence is not that oblivious to the political winds. How could he be.
Donald Trump was impeached on January 18, 2021 when he was still President.
