So uh... not to belabor the obvious, but...
Isn't this double jeopardy? He's already been tried and found not guilty in the impeachment hearing.
Sorry dems, I don't make the rules, but you created this problem out of whole cloth when you decided to impeach him after he left office.
Nope. No limitations on impeachments or indictments. Different issues or new evidence.
New evidence doesn't Trump (hah!) an acquittal. That's the point of the double jeopardy rule.
Has there been a trial? I think you're right though. It was late.
The house files impeachment proceedings. The senate tries the charges and chooses to convict or not. It's a trial.
Impeachment is a political process.
