Article 1 Section 3 is not that complicated, even a mediocre mind like my own can wrap my arms around it. But impeachment is a political process and conviction was hopeless once Newt and the boys lost seats in November. After the republican leaders in the House resigned it was assured that they would not even garner a majority in the senate for conviction, no less two thirds.

I don’t know what to say to somebody that thinks otherwise.

Dude do you understand that ONLY SENATORS can vote to acquit or convict in an impeachment trial. This is the result of the Senate elections of 1998.

The balance of the Senate remained unchanged at 55-45 in favor of the Republicans.
