Both sides are playing to audiences.
The Dems are crowing about how they impeached Trump and he will be “forever impeached”.
The Trump side is pointing out exactly how full of shite the whole procedure is on a number of fronts and doesn’t conform to how the Constitution nor House rules say the procedure is supposed to go.
All of the above is for the purpose of PR rather than affecting the outcome in the Senate, which will not be a conviction barring something major changing given that the two articles aren’t even crimes. Hell, ONE article is invalid on its face because it contradicts known court precedent with regard to disputes between branches.

Let’s look at the overall picture, shall we?
Are you advocating for court intervention to have Trump’s impeachment invalidated?
Here is where this specific sub started, a couple of lines from a couple of your posts:
"There is no recourse. The courts are out of this."
"The Congress has SOLE power of impeachment and subsequent trial. No ifs, ands or buts."
I provided a link that shows the courts are not out of it, and indeed they do provide recourse for disputed issues that arise during impeachment between the parties.
That's really the end of it. I've gotta say, you are very averse to giving in. I always find it impressive when a person can simply stand corrected, even only on a single point. In fact, I practiced that with you last week in a thread about the Trump Farsi tweet. You didn't exactly receive in the most ideal fashion, but I wouldn't let that stop me from doing it again.
