Apparently you’ve forgotten that convicting in the Senate requires 2/3—that is, 67.
FReepers need to do a search on this guy’s name: Hyram F. Suddfluffel, PhD
Lots of hits, few solid results. Apparently no one has been able to find this guy or verify his credentials or even that he exists.
Yes I have. Thanks for that reminder.
That does change things considerably, and I appreciate the correction.
*I spent the last 5 days trying to find this.*
IMHO, you didn’t try very hard:

One of many hits.
I find the name Hyram F. Suddfluffel to be most unusual. Of course, I like what he is saying.
Agreed. I said this knowing...
Solid write up, however, I don’t think that Nancy Piglosi thinks they can succeed. She only needed to appease the base of extreme left-wing liberals that demanded she try to impeach.
Bad move on her part as this could escalate against democrats in weak seats this election and in 2022.
P.S. The point about getting to bring anyone to the stand. I think Piglosi thinks the democrats can prevent that. Democrats are notorious for limiting the time allotted, against the rules.
Bkmk
Republicans control the Senate. There in lies the flaw in this guys analysis. Does anyone think they will allow carte blanche questioning of anyone that will blow the roof off this whole charade?
Think again. They will limit the exposure of their “colleagues on the left” and make Trumps team look like their the witch hunters. Then throw in John Roberts and the game will be over for ever electing another Trump-style candidate.
That is a mighty fake-looking name.
What? I meant a peaceful protest.
“They will remove Trump, watch.”
Then they will be removed as well.
Much appreciated.
Yes. Very sad but true.
Thanks puke.
Appreciate the shade.
IMO, that ain't gonna happen. Senate Republicans are for the most part, spineless turds. No better than homeless poop on the streets of San Francisco.
“”the Republicans will vote unanimously, “ (Not to convict in the Seaate)
Sure about that?”
Yes, the Republicans will do so for SELF preservation. They can not allow a “Republican” president to be removed for cause through impeachment.
It would be a scarlet letter pinned to EVERY Republican. They can’t allow that!
Also remember, this will be AFTER public hearings (in the House) to determine if there is sufficient cause to remove the president through impeachment.
A determination of high crimes and misdemeanors is possible because Democrats outnumber Republicans, but will they do so? Will they just want to “stop the bleeding”. Will they want to suffer again through a Senate trial?
ALL THE DIRT about Democrats and the Obama administration will be exposed. Could they survive that? Would they risk it?
I say NO! All this impeachment talk is just that “TALK”. They won’t dare to impeach President Trump. They would be indicting THEMSELVES in the process.
Just the “THREAT” of impeachment, all the “discussion” about impeachment, is just trying to damage Trump and maybe cost him votes. ACTUALLY impeaching him would be a YUGE mistake, back firing on the Democrats.
