Biden would then be forced to make a nomination......
Someone else would then become chief justice. ...
But the problem indeed, I think, lies in the fact that impeachment can only be brought against a sitting president. Which was done in due course. The House impeachment against Donald Trump was done during him being in Office. Rushed, but done.
The only thing is that a former President now has to stand trial in the Senate.
So, the object of impeachment and trial, to determine whether removal from office is warranted, may be impeded by the fact that Donald Trump no longer is President.
Except, perhaps, one could argue that another objective might be in play, and that is preventing such a person found guilty of the charges, to ever hold office or trust under the US.
It would, however, be a platform to get the word out, and exactly show who and what is going on. Especially, to those who are still hooked to MSN.
It would totally destroy the tradition of leaving a former President alone.
So, what prevents a next step, to unseal filed indictments against former Presidents, and other office holders?
Would normies then be up in arms against it, or given the limited exposure they have had to certain anomalies, or would they also insist on opening the Pandora Box. Public Opinion might indeed sway to that side.
What if Roberts Resigns?
