[QUOTE="Old Man Jingles, post: 4341409, member: 18222"] The [B][URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeachment_trial_of_Donald_Trump']impeachment trial of The Don [/URL][/B]in the United States Senate began on January 16, 2020 and is ongoing. It is a result of the impeachment of President Trump by the U.S. House of Representatives on December 18, 2019, following an inquiry stage which lasted from September to November 2019. The House passed two articles of impeachment, charging him with abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. Under Article I, Section 3, Clause 6 of the U.S. Constitution, a "Concurrence of two-thirds of the Members present" is required in order to convict President Trump and remove him from office. If successful, the Senate will then have to conduct a second vote, requiring just a simple majority, to disqualify him from holding public office in the future, meaning that the Senate could remove Trump from office but still allow him to continue running for re-election in the 2020 presidential race. Pelosi states that Impeachment is a solemn moment, yet she seems happy to sign the Articles of Impeachment. [IMG]https://www.atr.org/sites/default/files/assets/IMG_2095_0.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
