1. Sooner as long as it doesn't interfere with Biden's policies

I think Pelosi, Schumer and Biden can get both done.

[Hoyt]

2. What exactly do we gain after Biden take office? Retribution?

I know some think they could vote on him never holding office again, but that seems debatable. Besides, trump will never win another election for any meaningful office.

[mysteryowl]

4. There is no option for not holding a trial.

only when is the option.

[Hoyt]

7. Waste of time and political energy after.

[MyOwnPeace]

11. There's the "can't run again" thing

and we should hope that you are right about how he'd never be able to do that anyhow, but....
as I understand it he would lose all of the "ex-president" benefits.
For me, that would be a great "F-U!" to him!

[Hoyt]

23. I get it. But a better FU to him would be a decent healthcare system, immigration reform, shutting

down white wing militias, reinstating relations with foreign countries, a Prez that acts like the leader of the country, etc.

[MyOwnPeace]

24. With you on that!

I'm also thinking that there's about 81 million others too!

[Catcar]

8. We are a country of laws. Justice must prevail.

[Hoyt]

9. OK. Still doesn't mean anything. Not like he goes to jail. He's been Impeached

and that’s the only real impact if the trial is later. House would accomplish more by impeaching him again on Monday for other vile acts.

[Catcar]

12. Means a lot. I think the Senate may find him guilty. McConnell is done with Donny.

I think McConnell wants to insure that Trump will not have a stronghold on the Republican Party in the future. He's got one shot - find Trump guilty.

[Hoyt]

16. Still doesn't go to jail, and he'll never make it through primaries in 2024.

If we can’t get him Monday or Tuesday, it’s a waste of time unless completed quickly.

[Catcar]

20. My money says Trump goes to jail on state charges if he's able to skate on federal charges.

Time will tell.

[Historic NY]

3. Now

[jcgoldie]

5. now

Put 'em on record. Send that fucker to Siberia. Invasive surgery to extract the maga tumor.

[Catcar]

6. Multitask baby!

[abqtommy]

10. To use an analogy here, I'm not the sharpest tool or the brightest bulb so Im willing to leave it

up to our Dem leaders in the House and Senate. They haven't let me/us down yet!

[WA-03 Democrat]

15. Let the pilots fly

Nancy and Chuck and the entire team knows what they are doing. We have won and need to focus on getting a super majority to get the bugs out of the system.

[Mr.Bill]

13. Only wait until we take control of the Senate.

I don't trust McConnell.

[Hotler]

25. I agree but, I don't know political strategy. Anything to give Mitch

a paper cut between the toes.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

14. I think Speaker Pelosi knows a lot more about this shit than I do.

[tinrobot]

17. Now, but make sure the evidence is rock solid and damning.

Don't rush it.

[roamer65]

18. I'm going to put my trust in the impeachment managers.

They are smart people who will best be able to make the call.

Meanwhile, let’s get the country back from the brink.

[moondust]

19. More delay implies more evidence.

It's a big investigation that may take some time to uncover the most incriminating details.

No reason to rush at this point.

[UTUSN]

22. Bite the bullet, to coin a phrase.

[marie999]

26. Wait until they have rock solid evidence.

Call everyone who has spoken to trump to testify. There are people who are going to prison that will talk for clemency.
