The House can impeach all they want but I don’t see how it prevents the Senate from holding hearings.

Yes, it appears the Senate could simply decline to hold a trial at this time.

Mitch has some arrows in his quiver too.

Agree...The Dems don’t control the Senate...and Mitch knows all the moves.

No, this was a waste of a statement and a waste of a thread

What the HELL does such nonsense have to do with a senate vote in SCOTUS pick?

Is Trump supposed to go by some non existent “protocol” because of house bullsh.t?
