Today the Senate basically had a test vote, it appears based on the numbers that they don't have enough votes to impeach Trump (Constitutionality aside for the moment). Chess game. House Impeaches requiring Senate to hold trial. The Articles of Impeachment called out insurrection but also the fact that President Trump challenged the 2020 election results. Now everyone is ready for a trial so that the Presidents team can call out all the election fraud examples, before a public, probably world-wide audience. Here is my question. What prevents Chucky Schumer from shutting down the possibility of the trial, in lieu of today's vote. Everyone is hitching their cart to this trial horse. If it doesn't happen, and I'm not a legal scholar here, what's next? Moves and countermoves...

I think the Senate test vote was for our benefit. Now that officially Trump is out, his supporters need to be sure that this impeachment is not going to go anywhere. We can breathe easy knowing the votes are not there.
Everything else is circus. I am guessing that its all orchestrated, even the actions by the dems. The whole thing is a show. We can rest easy and enjoy the show
