Noon on the 20 th Schumer becomes speaker of the house. Same time Biden is to be sworn in. If they convict Trump, he can't run again. Which is clearly the purpose of this. Still need 2/3 votes from Senate to convict. I don't know if they have the votes to convict.
The impeachment is not what they want, they want the 25th... out now!
He isn't running again.

I am not disputing this, but this thread is about impeachment. I simply used the information, which was surprisingly hard to find. Nobody is correctimg my information. If I am wrong and somebody has better information, then I want to know. The 25th will require the majority of cabinet members to go along. Even less likely than 2/3 from Senate.

So Trump can't run in 2024
If he is covicted by the Senate, or if they can successfully invoke the 25th, Trump will not be elligble to run again.

This is personal as trump made our politicians look like fools. One that comes to mind is Obama saying that manufacturing jobs could never come back. Trump proved that was bullshite. Makes Obama look bad. They don’t like that crap.

Just spit balling here , but I think there is a desire to discourage future candidates who lose presidential elections from engaging in insurrection or violent behavior to overturn the results of the elections. These folks seem to think elections are important and that simply lying about the result and asking gangs of supporters to attack Congress for affirming the result is poor manners and not good public policy.

Oh I see I misspoke. I clearly meant Senate majority leader. The house has the votes to impeach, I am just assuming it goes through and to the Senate next.

You reaally think 22 or 23 Republican senator will be on board? 2 or 3 or even 10? Sure.... but 22 or 23?
I do. He is isolated and they are scared.

What are they scared of? The voters? Because if so, I'm not so sure doing that to Trump would be the best move for the group as a whole.

Name 'em.
I'll give you Murkowski, Mittens, Toomey and Collins. Also the guy from Oklahoma. That's 5. Give me 12 more.
My math was wrong earlier. They need 17.

This is the right question.

Hard to imagine they are scared of the voters since they can rig elections.

I had similar thoughts, but we are talking about the Repubs in this instance. But who knows, it might be one of those distinction without a difference deals.

What purpose does this serve to impeach Trump?
quote:LINK
•He is the first president in modern history to not get us into another endless war. •He has been steadily bringing home troops.
•He has negotiated with NATO members to "pony up" the agreed upon share of 2% GDP. No longer do we pay a disproportionate high percentage of the NATO budget. With Trump's America First policy, he understands that countries do not have friends, they have interests. As a result, countries respect us again.
•He has stopped Russian aggression in Ukraine by supplying them weapons, not Obama blankets.
Trump has secured our southern border by building nearly 500 miles of improved fencing and negotiated with Mexico to mobilize 27,000 troops to the border.
•He has brokered four Arab country peace agreements with Israel and moved our embassy to Jerusalem.
He signed a prison reform act that ended minority discrimination by the court system.
•Until the China virus hit us this year, we had the best economy by several measures. We had the lowest unemployment numbers, highest labor participation rate, highest minority home ownership and highest wages. We are now rebuilding those numbers along with all-time stock market highs. He did this by lowering taxes and regulations.
•He started a virus task force early on and fast-tracked a vaccine.
1. Democrats cannot do anything about his Trump's record in office which is actually quite impressive when you step back and look at it. They want to destroy his record, and they know that Russia collusion will not hold up to the test of time and neither will their criticisms of the way he handled covid. The best way to make him go down in history is to make him be the only POTUS to be impeached twice and if they use trying to start an insurrection as the pretense for it then they are hoping that everyone will remember that is what it was for. The media will do their best to make sure that everytone thinks that Trump's second impeachment was for attempting a coup just like they made people think WJC was impeached for getting a blowjob.
2. The elites hate the fact that Trump brought new voters to the table. They want the white "Wal-Mart shopping Trump supporters" to go back to not paying attention.
3. It is personal between Trump and Pelosi.
