Right and so they will vote to have the trial, which is their prerogative as the legislature. Thank you for making my point for me.
And SCOTUS will do nothing because it is an impeachment proceeding which the constitution expressly gives authority to the legislature to conduct as they see fit and which penalties they can apply. Again, the court has already said they wouldn’t get involved in impeachment proceedings or their results...so this isn’t debatable lol they literally said they’d never do what you’re saying they would.
But then again, I guess I’m not surprised since trump supporters have never been particularly intelligent or attuned to actual facts. Sorry your buddy lost snowflake
