Trying impeachments is given to a Political Body, the US Senate.It did....Democrats say the House impeached President Trump...
When those jurors who colluded with the accused step aside in favor of those who can take and keep their juror's oath.......OK, when does the trial begin?...
The US Senate has the SOLE power to try impeachments, SCOTUS has no role in impeachments.I suspect that the Supreme Court will need to rule on pre-trial collusion and inability to keep their juror's oath....Democrats cannot have it both ways...
No one is going to recuse themselves.The odds don't matter... the Trial does... a number of prospective jurors will need to recuse themselves....Meanwhile, the odds of impeachment and removal dropped to 9.3%. On December 1, 2018, they were at 56.2%.
In fact, it's just as likely that the House never follows through and actually impeaches him.
