Quote:This is the kind of argument that will be made by the lawyers for the rioters. If you have the right jury called from a list of Republican Senators, but not the seven Republicans who voted to convict, the rioting clients might avoid jail. But jail was never an option for Trump, even if he was convicted.

Oh BTW I listened to McConnell, and his description of what Trump did (or failed to do) during the riot was all second-hand. Very much like the "QUIDPROQUO!" hysteria, except worse, because duruing this impeachment, there was no investigation by either the House or Senate, and no witnesses were called, fake or otherwise. What was presented as "evidence" was a highly edited version of Trump's speech and "news reports". (Also, I noted with irony McConnell's reference to the "increasing hysteria" about the stolen election of 2020 with the understanding that he was a knowing participant in the "increasing hysteria" about the stolen election of 2016.)
So I call bullshit, again, and hope that the hypocrites of both parties in the House and Senate get what they deserve.
The worst that could happen to Trump from impeachment was that he can't run again for President but he could still be the leader of the GOP after conviction. I think that is a great idea!

I think Trump running again for President can do even more damage to the GOP. Thankfully, Trump will be available to do damage that Democrats cannot.

Incorrect. Fake mail-in election was fake. The assist goes to Biden*, both Senators and the Legacy Media literally buying votes by promising voters in Georgia they will get an additional $1,400 in stimulus money if they vote Democrat.
Trump had nothing to do with it.
And besides, you act as if this is the first time legislative power has swung one way or another. I assure you it's not the first time...
and it won't be the last.

"Telling everyone that the race was stolen when it wasn't cost the Republicans two Senate seats," said Erick Erickson, a syndicated conservative radio show host and blogger in Georgia. "The going all-in on the cult of personality around President Trump hurt them as a result. They had to play up this, 'There's no way Donald Trump could have lost. It had to be stolen from him.' "
In fact, according to sources close to the campaigns, people in and around the White House, including the president's lawyer former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, put near-constant pressure on the two Georgia Republicans, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, to shape their runoff campaigns around his demands.
"It was a hostage situation every day," said one Republican strategist familiar with the campaigns.

Quote:How about Trump's tax cheating? The IRS is no longer controlled by Trump. Trump owes the IRS around $1 billion in back taxes. Four years from now he won't have paid what he owes and his lawyers will be appealing his tax cases, but voters other than Trumptards will believe he cheated. I think cheating will hurt Trump in the 2024 election, while cheating won't hurt, for example, Ted Cruz running for President. Better for the Democrats that Trump was not convicted during the impeachment, can run for President and is likely to lose because of his strongly suspected cheating. If Trump wins in 2024, his tax cases will be on hold until 2029, when the cases can continue being litigated.

Two Republicans who voted for Trump’s conviction were immediately censured
In the hours after Republican Sens. Bill Cassidy (LA) and Richard Burr (NC) joined five other Republican senators in voting to convict former President Donald Trump on an article of impeachment for his role in inciting the January 6 insurrection, the state Republican parties in Louisiana and North Carolina wasted no time laying down a marker that the GOP still belongs to Trump.
The LAGOP and NCGOP each quickly censured Cassidy and Burr for their votes. In a statement posted to Twitter, the LAGOP wrote that it “condemn[s], in the strongest possible terms, the vote today by Sen. Cassidy to convict former President Trump,” while NCGOP Chair Michael Whatley released a statement denouncing Burr’s vote as “shocking and disappointing.”
Trump won both Louisiana and North Carolina in 2020. Cassidy was loyal to Trump throughout Trump’s term in office, but began to distance himself during the impeachment trial, perhaps feeling emboldened by the fact that he just won reelection for another six-year term. Following his vote, he posted a remarkably succinct video statement in which he said “I voted to convict President Trump because he is guilty.”

SPEAKING OF INCITEMENT, WHO INCITED THIS?

"Never Experienced Such Vitriol" - Trump Lawyer's Home Vandalized Amid Wave Of Death Threats
The suburban Philadelphia home of Michael van der Veen, one of former President Trump's defense attorneys, was vandalized on Friday night, according to The Hill.
Van der Veen spoke to the reporters Saturday after the Senate acquitted Trump of incitement with a final vote of 57-43, with seven Republicans breaking ranks to vote with the Democrats. He told a press pool about the damage his home sustained.
"My home was attacked. I'd rather not go into it because it would encourage other people to do it more, but you know, I've had nearly 100 death threats," he told a press pool.
Van der Veen said he's far from a "controversial guy" and is not a political figure.
"My home was attacked last night - windows broken, spray paint, really bad words spray-painted everywhere. And the thing is, you guys don't know me, but you know I'm not a controversial guy. I'm not politically minded so to speak," he said.

Quote:If I was looking for suspects, I'd look at Trump's previous set of lawyers: Former President Donald Trump's five impeachment defense attorneys have left a little more than a week before his trial is set to begin, according to people familiar with the case, amid a disagreement over his legal strategy.

The first set of 5 lawyers are probably crazy mad because they aren't getting paid by Trump while the second set of 3 lawyers are, maybe, getting paid. Life is so hard and unfair to Trumptards, even if they are lawyers:

I'm pretty sure Trump won't be using impeachment lawyers again, so why pay?

After wocing McConnellz complete speech, I think he iz a jeneus.
It seemz like he made a mistake for not getting the GoPs to convict, but maybe he just didnt hav the power.
But its much more likely that he figured out a better plan that us outsiderz dont hav enuf info to see.
