There is actually a perfectly good reason to place Trump on trial after Jan 20th:

Lock him up!! Lock him up!!

I don't think that is possible, knowing how slow courts operate when a defendant has enough money to appeal and delay. Besides that, Trump might drop dead because of obesity before the wheels can even get turning. For example, fatso President Andrew Johnson, who got impeached, died at 66. Trump is fatter than Johnson and older.

Here’s Why Republicans Should Support Impeachment of Donald Trump: It’s true that an impeachment trial can’t be finished before January 20, which makes it seem sort of pointless. But for two reasons, it’s not.

First, trying to overturn an election violently and illegally in order to stay in power is, by definition, something that a president can only do during his last month or so in power. Doing nothing about it sends a message that lame duck presidents can basically do anything with impunity. I hardly need to explain why this is a very bad precedent to set.

Second, an impeachment trial might be curiously attractive to Republicans, whose support will be needed. They would obviously be reluctant to support an impeachment that would toss one of their own out of office. But this one wouldn’t. Instead, a conviction would do two things. First, it gives the Senate the authority to prevent Trump from ever running again for federal office. Second, it would rescind some of Trump’s perks of retirement, including his pension, office space, and government-paid staff.

There are at least a handful of Republicans who believe that Trump’s actions are indeed impeachable, and these folks might believe that it’s quite fitting for Trump to pay a price for his actions that’s short of removal from office. Are there 17 of them? It’s worth finding out.

One technical detail about that vote that could be interesting: it's 2/3rds of seated senate members at the time of the vote. No doubt McConnell would have some control of that, but what if many Rep members don't want to go on record for that vote and stay away? I'll reach for anything at this point, including death by McDonalds.

Clyburn says House Democrats will vote this week to impeach Trump but may wait to send articles to Senate

House Majority Whip James E. Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Sunday that the House plans to vote this week to impeach President Trump — but that the chamber may wait a few months to submit the articles of impeachment to the Senate.

Tomorrow, Monday the charges will be put forth.

We have a lot of republicans suggesting they overlook what happened in the name of unity. Still JO, they are trying to find ways to cover Trump and their own asses. I agree, all involved need to answer for it. I was reading today a lot of corporate money will be denied to all those who voted to block the authorization of the Biden win. The more people who see the Capital assault videos, and newer videos as they come in, the angrier people get.
