They all have to vote individually on each of the 16 articles. If found guilty on just 1 article he will be removed from office.

I am constantly amazed at how many people cannot grasp time zones.

I don’t like how Patrick is reading these articles in the negative....not even al ‘allegedly’ in there. 😡

Might be standard MO, but....grrr.

Reminding me of the whole Trump impeachment sham....praying NOT.
