The impeachment of a civilian by the Congress is unconstitutional. There should be no trial and it’s nonsense that the president should put up a defense of any kind. However, the “looming” trial is a good excuse to keep military in DC. It’s all optics & exposure of traitors.
This is a true. Congress (Federal Govt) has no standing or authority to put an individual citizen on trial. Impeachment is only for Presidents currently in office.
