Will the Chief Justice even show up?

@sikofit

He will be impeached as a sitting President

Roberts is not needed for that to happen.
He will not be President when the trial to remove him from office occurs, therefore…no President no need for Roberts.
In fact, a trial at that point will be pointless.
And I think enough Senators will go along with that to make the conviction fail once again.
Besides, of course, that there was no insurrection as alleged.

Totally agree. They are still desperately afraid of him. I would vote for him over any democrat, but at this point, I would prefer a little less drama with my next President.

Totally agree except I would totally vote for him. Lol

Interesting.

Would enabling be a viable substitute for conspiring?

Everyone needs to throw a bucket of cold water on this hyper partisanship.

Enabling? Roberts is not enabling Pelosi to do anything, the Constitution did.

And Trump’s actions.

Think a bit. A constitutional amendment doesn’t take place without the discussion beforehand.

Huh? It absolutely does. Are you not familiar with the process?

Another purity test! YAY!

No it is not. He must be convicted to be barred.

It was a legislate question. Any potential amendment is going to have a tremendous amount of discussion around it

Forcing the issue. Pitting the branches of government against each other.

It is a giant dysfunctional family on display and nobody is able to back off. Very uncomfortable.

It isn’t just Trump.

That’s not a fair response. I would totally vote for Kanye over Biden. Lol.

@WuWei

Apparently Trump himself disagrees.

Not exactly. Take a look at everything that went on this election cycle. Many more than President Trump should be saying, “I am partly responsible.” I believe President Trump’s lack of responsibility lies in how he treated Vice President Pence–not anything he said about the crowd walking to the Capitol and having a peaceful protest there instead of remaining at the Ellipse. Words one percent ignored.

@Jezcoe

He won;t even admit that his words riled them up. He claims what he said was “totally appropriate” and that it is the impeachment because of his actions that are the real problem.

And “impeachment is causing tremendous anger. For Pelosi & Schumer to continue, it’s causing tremendous danger”

Yeah… that is going to calm things down.

And now his base will be riled up and angered by the impeachment. He again put wood in fire by making it about himself. He is asking his base to defend him from impeachment. they are already angered by upcoming inaugration. the impeachment may push them over the top. trump need to just be quiet about it.

[Camp]

OK. Have at it.

[Meriweather]

@Jezcoe

You mean the part of the speech where he is saying that the Vice President should just hand him the election?

That part was cool?

I already addressed that portion both yesterday and today.

He screwed up bigly last Wednesday. The first impeachment was unwarranted, this one is warranted.

It caps off an run of insanity since November 4th. And it ended in death.

Let him go.

He deserves to impeached but not for incitement to riot.

Have at what? The House is going to impeach. You think the Senate is going to refuse to try him?

What portion of the speech was I addressing at that time? (The portion where he spoke of a peaceful protest at the Capitol.)

@zantax

Then why does he deserve it?

There was a riot. He did incite it.
