[quote]If that clause was meant to address double jeopardy, why would it reference the party convicted instead of the party impeached? Certainly double jeopardy is applicable to the party who would be acquitted too. Yet, it doesn't address that.[/quote]
I agree. And you seem to know what you are...

I think it really was the COVID spending, which isn't exactly a strong defense of Trump, but it is important to note.
Spending under Trump was basically in line with Obama post-recession.
Spending as a percent of GDP was 20.3% in 2017, 19.9% in 2018, and 20.7% in 2019.
That is in line with spen...
