Nice explanation. I wonder if there is enough time for any of this? Don't they need some debate in the house regarding the "charges"? Then it goes to the senate for trial. There are only a few working days before Jan. 20th. Is that enough time to even start a trial?
The House made a show of all that when they Impeached Trump last time. This time, they have dispensed with the showboating and facade. Some of the (R)'s who spoke last night and today pointed that out on the record, too.
The Senate is in recess, in such a way that (to my understanding) in order to prevent shenanigans by Senators who {{haven't taken the long slow horse and buggy ride home and}} remain in DC, all 100 Senators must call the Senate back into session, or they must wait until the next scheduled day of business which (I believe) is January 19.
