During an election year.

Didn't we hear that in 2016 about SCOTUS? So the world stops every time we have an election? And it is completely lost on these crooks that because it IS an election year and the majority in the Senate refuse to secure our elections -

He was duly elected.

He was not fairly elected.

And now he has been duly impeached.

And now he is facing the duly mandated impeachment trial.

After which he may or may not be removed from office.



Let's say you have a guy who is out of jail.

Then he kills someone, is tried and convicted and sentenced to 100 years in jail.

You are not reversing his freedom. You are punishing him for committing a crime. This really shouldn't be all that difficult. Unless you're a republican, it seems.
